Linda Weiss-Edwards provides a list of Onsite Consultation for Artists and Schools from each state in the United States in this segment of "Safety Hazards" from Metalsmith 1984 Fall.

Every state has a free onsite consultation plan for employers who want help in recognizing and correcting health and safety hazards in their workplace. This consultation service is provided by state governments or private contractors with funding from the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA). The program is completely separate from OSHA's inspection efforts and issues no citations or penalties.

The program is primarily aimed at small businesses and the consultation has to be requested by the employer. In many states, the consultation service is also open to individual artists and craftspeople who have requested help. Of course schools, universities, theaters, and museums can also apply.

The consultation is confidential and consists of an onsite inspection similar to that OSHA would carry out. The consultant then makes recommendations for the correction of any health and safety problems discovered. OSHA will not be informed of the results of the consultation except in cases of imminent danger.
