What action is NOT typically discussed in the closing conference of an OSHA inspection?

During the closing conference of an OSHA inspection, the primary focus is on discussing the findings and any immediate safety issues identified during the inspection. The purpose is to provide feedback to the employer and inform them about any hazards that were observed, which aligns with the need to maintain a safe work environment.

Discussing potential citations and fines may not be the central topic during this meeting. Instead, the closing conference typically emphasizes communication about existing hazards and the improvements needed to address them. Safety violations and necessary corrective actions are highlighted to foster a proactive approach rather than dwelling on potential penalties. This focus aims to encourage compliance and improve workplace safety practices collaboratively.

In summary, while citations and fines might be addressed later in the inspection process, they are not usually a focal point of the discussion during the final conference. This allows the opportunity for constructive dialogue about safety improvements and hazard recognition instead.
