Contractor Management and Multi-Employer Worksite Liability
ASP written lesson, 10 min read. ASP Domain 9: Legal
Written with AI help from the rules it covers, then fact-checked against them. Study aid, not site-specific safety advice. The official rule controls.
What you'll learn
- Apply OSHA's two-step multi-employer citation test to the creating, exposing, correcting and controlling roles
- Explain prime contractor and subcontractor joint responsibility in construction
- List host employer and contract employer duties under process safety management
- Describe joint responsibility for temporary workers and who records their injuries
What this lesson covers
This lesson explains how the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) decides which employers on a shared site can be cited, how prime contractors and subcontractors share responsibility, and what host employers owe contractors and temporary workers. It matters because contracting out work does not contract out the duty to keep workers safe.
