Washington Update 


State Department of Labor and Industries spokeswoman Elaine Fischer says one worker 
was spotted on the roof of a three-story home wearing a safety harness that wasn't 
connected to an anchor point. In three other inspections, the state says it discovered 
multiple employees without proper safety equipment.

 
The groups - which include the National Safety Council, the American Society of Safety 
Engineers and the Board of Certified Safety Professionals - asked Congress to include at 
least $573.8 million in funding for OSHA and at least $339.1 million in funding for NIOSH in 
the appropriations bill for fiscal year 2018. Those figures represent the funding amounts for 
the agencies in fiscal year 2016, with OSHA's allocation adjusted for inflation, the groups 
state in the letter.
