Was at an NRTL/CAB site yesterday. Noted a small group lurking - assessment
engineer said they were part of an OSHA audit team. I recognized one member
of the audit team from another NRTL down the road.
Does the U.S. OSHA use NRTLs to audit each other?

Brian,
NRTLs are under to oversight of OSHA, although I was not aware they would
do field surveys like this.

OSHA only uses OSHA employees to conduct NRTLaudits and assessments.
The NRTL program does not operate on a peer assessment type of
system.

Brian,
NRTLs
When I was at TUV the OSHA auditors for our NRTL accreditation were actually
from the Department of Mines if I remember correctly but maybe it has changed
in the last 12years?
For our CB accreditation CENELC did use auditors from other notified bodies
like CSA and VDE.

Could it be that the NRTL you visited recently hired the other NRTL staff
member?

In the 1980s, I believe MSHA(Mine Safety and Health Association)performed our
NRTL audits on behalf of OSHA.
I guess that makes me old.
