The Center for Safety and Health (CSH) is the U.S.
Department of Labor, Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA)
Consultation Program for Mississippi.
It was created in the early
1970’s as the Branch of Occupational Safety and Health, a part
of the Mississippi
State Board
of Health. In 1991 the branch
was elevated to division status and in 1992 was relocated to the Mississippi
Workers' Compensation Commission. In 1994 the division was transferred to
Mississippi
State University
and designated a center. The
purpose of the CSH is to provide assistance to the employers or managers
of small and medium size high-hazard businesses in Mississippi
by helping them come into compliance with the regulations of OSHA. The CSH is located off-campus in Brandon,
Mississippi.
