This month, DOLI met with leadership from the U.S. Department of Labor’s Wage and Hour Division Richmond Office.

The conversation focused on where our work intersects. We discussed collaboration, possible cross-training, and how we can better serve Virginia workers and employers together.

Joining the meeting were DOLI leadership, the Deputy Secretary of Labor, and WHD leadership from Richmond.

Stronger partnerships mean stronger protections. We look forward to continuing the conversation.

This week, Commissioner Jim Frederick met with Schindler Elevator’s corporate safety and health leadership to talk about protecting workers across Virginia.

The conversation covered Schindler’s safety and health systems and how DOLI programs support employers who lead on safety, including BEST, BUILT, WhatIF?, and the VOSH conference.

Strong partnerships between employers and DOLI help make sure every worker gets home safe!
