The Safety Engineering division of the Georgia Department of Labor (GDOL) administers some of the laws relating to work conditions and employee safety. It conducts safety inspections under the Boiler and Pressure Vessel Safety Act and the state laws governing elevators, escalators, moving sidewalks, man lifts, dumbwaiters, and wheelchair lifts. The division is also responsible for inspecting amusement park and carnival rides.
Safety Engineering works in conjunction with the U.S. Bureau
of Labor Statistics to collect and process data on fatal
and nonfatal occupational injuries in Georgia. Safety Engineering is also the administrator for the Hazardous Chemical Protection and Right to Know programs for all state agencies.
The GDOL encourages safe work environments by offering several workplace safety programs and affiliations to help employers and employees create, maintain, and develop effective safety programs.
