Developing a Site Safety and Health Plan
|
|
A Site Safety and Health Plan describes the potential
hazards of the work site, along with all company policies, controls and work
practices selected to minimize those hazards. The most important factor in
reducing workplace injuries is implementing the plan. Implementation
requires management's commitment to provide adequate resources for training,
accountability, self audits, and employee involvement.
Although required by some states, OSHA does not require a written
comprehensive Safety and Health Plan. However, OSHA does require that
employees and their supervisors be trained in the specific hazards and
control measures associated with their assigned tasks. The written Safety
and Health Plan is a valuable tool in providing this training.
This section provides references which may be useful in developing your site
Safety and Health Plan.
