Reminders about OSHA's emphasis programs

It’s that time of year! We are preparing for (or already into) the winter season.

 

As jobsites tend to get a little less hectic, now is a suitable time to remind you about OSHA’s current National Emphasis Programs (NEPs) and Regional Local Emphasis Programs (LEPs). When planning your 2024 annual training, remember to account for training that is addressed in the NEPs and LEPs. 

 

Advocacy Update

What we are addressing to promote safe, attainable housing.

  • Nov. 15, HBA members enjoyed lunch with local building officials for the Building Industry Connect (pictured above). They had a chance to ask questions and hear winter weather reminders from Mark Housh, West Fargo, Shawn Ouradnik, Fargo and Steve Schroeder, Dilworth.

ND Association of Builders installs Spaeth as president

North Dakota Association of Builders hosted its annual banquet and board meeting in Fargo earlier this month at Radisson. They installed our very own HBA of F-M member, Tom Spaeth, Accent Contracting, as 2024 president. Congratulations!
 

NDAB also hosted a BUILD-PAC fundraiser and heard from Home Builders Institute CEO Ed Brady, discussing the importance of implementing the HBA curriculum into our schools to help with educating the next generation of building professionals!
