A safety plan included in investigation or cleanup work plans which outlines protective measures for site workers and the community during investigation or cleanup activities.
OSHA safety regulations (29 CFR 1910 and 1926) require a wide variety of documented (written) plans. These plans must be developed to meet the OSHA requirements, but tailored to the individual situation.
Employees are required to be trained in the use of these plans and this training, too, must be documented. The plans must be maintained and updated.
Some of the most commonly required safety plans are:
Safety & Health Plans (20 CFR 1910.120)
OSHA-required Safety Plans and Programs
Chemical Hygiene Plan
Chemical Storage Plan
Emergency Action Plan
Hearing Conservation Program
Hazardous Energy Control (lockout / tagout)
Injury and Illness Recordkeeping and Reporting Systems
Respiratory Protection Plan
Training Documentation Systems/Plans
Vehicle Accident Prevention Plan
Workplace Violence Policy
Process Safety Management (29 CFR 1910.119)
HazCom - Hazard communication - MSDS/Worker Right-to-Know
(29 CFR 1910.1200)
Be frank, do you have a plan in place in case OSHA comes knocking at your door?
