7 KENTUCKY RULES/REGULATIONS & KENTUCKY ADMINISTRATIVE REGULATIONS TITLE 803: LABOR CABINET CHAPTER 2: OCCUPATION SAFETY AND HEALTH 803 KAR 2:110. Employer and employee representatives. Pursuant to the authority granted the Kentucky Occupational Safety and Health Standards Board by KRS , the following rules and administrative regulations are adopted concerning the employer and employee representatives who may accompany compliance safety and health officers during the course of the inspection. Section 1. Representatives of Employers and Employees. (1) Compliance safety and health officers shall be in charge of inspections and questioning of persons. A representative of the employer and a representative authorized by his employees shall be given an opportunity to accompany the compliance safety and health officer. The compliance safety and health officer may permit additional employer representatives and additional representatives authorized by employees to accompany him where he determines that such additional representatives will further aid the inspection. A different employer and employee representative may accompany the compliance safety and health officer during each different phase of an inspection if this will not interfere with the conduct of the inspection. (2) Compliance safety and health officers shall have authority to resolve all disputes as to who is the representative authorized by the employer and employees for the purpose of this section. If there is no authorized representative of employees, or if the compliance safety and health officer is unable to determine with reasonable certainty who is such representative, he shall consult with a reasonable number of employees concerning matters of safety and health in the workplace. (3) The representative(s) authorized by employees shall be an employee(s) of the employer. However, if in the judgment of the compliance safety and health officer, good cause has been shown why accompaniment by a third party who is not an employee of the employer (such as an industrial hygienist or a safety engineer) is reasonably necessary to the conduct of an effective and thorough physical inspection of the workplace, such third party may accompany the compliance safety and health officer during the inspection. 7
