The federal Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSHA) sets a national minimum standard for safety, but allows local jurisdictions to adopt standards which are at least as stringent. Under common law, as an employer, you are obligated to provide your employees with a safe place to work.

How does OSHA define workplace safety?

Although OSHA does not formally define workplace safety, it does lay out requirements for employers. Per the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970, employers must take the following steps to ensure workplace safety:

  • Ensure that their workplaces are free of serious recognized hazards.
  • Maintain workplace conditions that adhere to OSHA standards.
  • Provide and maintain safe employee tools and equipment.
  • Warn employees of potential hazards, using clear, obvious signage.
  • Post OSHA citations near unsafe spaces for three days or until the area is safe again, whichever period is longer.
  • Establish safe operation procedures, and alert employees to any updates.
  • Train employees in workplace safety procedures, using clear, obvious language.
  • Explain safe use, incident prevention and hazardous exposure procedures for any chemicals used in the workplace.
  • Keep data sheets on hand for all hazardous materials.
  • Adhere to OSHA standards regarding, if applicable, training and medical examinations.
  • Place an OSHA poster or your state’s equivalent, if applicable, in a heavily trafficked workplace location.
  • Report workplace incidents to your nearest OSHA office. The following timeline applies:
    • Work-related deaths must be reported within eight hours.
    • Work-related amputations, eye losses and inpatient hospitalizations must be reported within 24 hours.
  • With limited exceptions, keep records of all work-related illnesses and injuries, and make them available to current and former employees.
  • Share medical and exposure records with employees.
  • Accommodate OSHA compliance officer requests during inspections.
  • Do not discriminate against employees pursuing legal or other action under OSHA standards.

OSHA’s “General Duty Clause” states…

“Each employer shall furnish to each of his employees employment and place of employment which are free from recognized hazards that are causing or are likely to cause death or serious physical harm to his employees.”

OSHA defines “recognized hazards” in its recently revised Field Operations Manual (FOM) for inspectors, and lists three ways in which a hazard qualifies as recognized:

  • Employer recognition: This can be established by evidence of actual employer knowledge of a hazardous condition
  • Industry recognition: A hazard is recognized if the employer’s industry is aware of its existence
  • Common sense recognition: The FOM states, “Hazard recognition can still be established if a hazardous condition is so obvious that any reasonable person would have recognized it.”

As a business person, you must provide customers, vendors and other people who visit your company site with safe passage. As an owner or occupant of any property, you must maintain it in a condition safe for everyone who comes onto your property.

Besides obviously making everything right, what proof do you have that you are interested in safety and have done something about having a safe workplace? A written safety handbook can be your best defense against lawsuits…

Believe it…

“Well done! …I would emphasize the speed and anyone-can-do-it nature of the program. I think it’s a great product and I think it is a great step forward in our ability to provide safe and healthful places of employment.”
~ Jack Wright, Certified Safety Professional, Chattanooga, TN

OUCH!!! Did You Know That…

A simple lock-out block-out device could have saved the lives of two men who were cleaning a tire manufacturing machine at the Bridgestone Tire & Rubber Company in Akron, Ohio. The lock-out is placed on the On/Off switch to prevent anyone from accidentally starting the machine. The block-out device is like a steel bar wedged in the gears that prevents the machine from moving. Apparently the men used neither device and were unaware of the hazard.

 

The director of OSHA personally delivered a $7.4 million penalty against Bridgestone!

A $150 investment in SafetyPlanBuilder and a few minutes’ work to create a written company safety manual might have prevented this tragic accident and saved Bridgestone millions! It can for you. Comply with OSHA workplace regulations with ease!

And save money on Workers Comp, Liability insurance…?!? Ask your Agent

It’s a tangled mess of complicated laws, but Safety Plan Builder sorts it all out for you. When laws differ, Safety Plan Builder takes the highest legal standard and builds it into your plan — to offer you and your employees maximum protection. The result?

  • A comprehensive, industry and state-specific safety plan that complies with all applicable OSHA and state laws
  • The customized safety manual can be a tool for self-auditing your facility
  • Identifying each safety hazard and potential safety problem in your work environment
  • Once identified, the manual provides clear and concise language for dealing with the problem
  • Just having a written safety plan usually reduces the fines to one-tenth of the average

Don’t think you’re safe if your business is office-based rather than industrial. You’re still required to comply with OSHA, and you’re still vulnerable to lawsuits! A written safety manual is important.

Talk to Your Insurance Agent

You may be able to save up to 15% on workers comp and Employer Liability Insurance (EPLI) and other insurance policies. Safety Plan Builder can more than pay for itself.

In addition to the legal protection, a written safety plan can boost morale, preserve the health and productivity of your employees, and help create a positive atmosphere in your workplace. With Safety Plan Builder, everybody wins.
