OSHA recently released its Site-Specific Targeting 2012 (SST-12) program designed to focus agency inspection resources on workplaces that experience the highest injury and illness rates. The information on these rates is derived from the OSHA Data Initiative (ODI) survey of approximately 80,000 establishments in selected high-hazard industries. The SST-12 is effective as of January 4, 2013, and applies only to high-hazard, nonconstruction establishments with 20 or more employees.
