Programs
The written programs OSHA expects
Most citations are not for missing equipment — they are for a program that was never written down, never trained on, or never updated. Here is what each one is, and the standard it comes from.
Hazard Communication
Keep SDS, GHS labels, and training synchronized for every chemical on site.
Emergency Action Plan
Document evacuation, severe weather, robbery, and fire responses with role assignments.
Fire Prevention & Hot Work
Control ignition sources, hot work permits, and temporary fire watches in busy shops.
Lockout/Tagout
Energy control procedures keep mechanics and techs safe during maintenance.
Respiratory Protection
Fit testing, medical evals, and cartridge schedules for airborne exposures.
Personal Protective Equipment
Tie PPE matrices to JHA results so supervisors know what to issue.
Machine Guarding
Document point-of-operation guards, interlocks, and inspection logs.
Electrical Safety
Arc flash assessments, energized work permits, and qualified person definitions.
Walking-Working Surfaces
Inspections for ladders, elevated work, and dock edges with near-miss tracking.
Recordkeeping & Reporting
Accurate OSHA 300 logs, TRIR, DART, and rapid reporting when incidents occur.
