  1. On a multi-employer worksite can OSHA cite only the controlling contractor if they find a safety violation?
    1. True
    2. False

    Answer: False. This issue falls under the multi-employer rule. Any or all of the employers may be cited depending on the circumstances. Employers who are creating, exposing, correcting, or controlling employers fall under Federal OSHA requirements. This means that any employer who creates or allows their employees to be exposed to another employer’s hazards may be cited by OSHA.
