News from APCA
On June 3, APCA sent a letter to key Senators supporting Dave Keeling's nomination to serve as Assistant Secretary of Labor for OSHA. The Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions will hold a hearing on the nomination this Thursday.
Sent to committee leaders Sens. Bill Cassidy, M.D., and Bernie Sanders, the letter details Keeling's extensive career in workplace safety, starting as a UPS package handler and ultimately advancing to oversee the company’s safety operations.
"He has been on the ground and on the frontlines of workplace safety for his entire career and has a keen understanding of what works to get companies focused on protecting their employees from workplace hazards," the letter states. "APCA's leadership and member companies strongly urge Senators to vote to confirm Dave Keeling as OSHA administrator."
Given the critical role OSHA plays in safeguarding America's construction workforce, PCCA urges the Senate to confirm Dave Keeling promptly. We stand ready to collaborate with him, confident that his leadership will foster a practical and results-oriented approach to the agency.
