20 (Relatively) New AB 2774 Labor Code 6432 Dealing with Serious Violations and Appeals: Changed definition of a Serious Violation from: Substantial probability (51%) of death or serious physical harm, to Realistic possibility of death or serious physical harm... AB 2774: Form 1BY Being Updated A form used by Cal/OSHA that is supposed to encourage communication between the employer and the Division. The Compliance Officer is to use it to inform the employer 15 days in advance of what specific Serious violation is being cited. Gives the employer a 15 day opportunity to inform Cal/OSHA why the Division should not issue a Serious violation. 20
21 Form 1BY Being Updated The Employer may use this form. The Employer may meet with the Compliance Officer at the office instead of using this form. The Employer may speak or meet with the District Manager instead of using this form. The Employer should bring Documentation (Training records, Inspection records, a copy of their IIPP, etc for a good defense). AB 2774 / Labor Code 6432 The Employer is to show themselves as Reasonable and Responsible. Another Defense: The Employer did not know and could not, with the exercise of reasonable diligence, have known of the presence of the violation. 21
