I have been working in the occupational health and safety field for 20 years and founded Employee On-Boarding Specialties, LLC after moving to Cheyenne and seeing that there were no occupational focused providers in town. I wanted to provide the best employee care for employers while meeting OSHA and DOT requirements at a reasonable cost. Keeping our workforce healthy is necessary to keep our family and friends safe and healthy as well.
