Summary

Occupational Safety and Health Small Employer Access to Justice Act of 2003 - Amends the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970 (OSHA) to provide for the award of attorney's fees and costs to certain small employers when they prevail in specified administrative or court proceedings. Requires such awards to prevailing employers if they had not more than 100 employees and a net worth of not more than $1.5 million at the respective time of: (1) the initiation of the administrative proceedings (adversary adjudication); or (2) the filing of the action addressed in the court proceedings (judicial review of action). Provides for such awards without regard to whether the position of the Secretary of Labor or the Federal Government was substantially justified or whether special circumstances make an award unjust.
