Hurdles to Forming and Maintaining the Partnership Setting aside differences to focus on industry safety: Competitive differences between contractors Union vs. non-union philosophical differences Concern that Partnership involvement could expose EEI utility members to taking some legal responsibility for the safety of contractor employees. Neither OSHA or contractors use Partnership information against other parties in enforcement actions. 12
