Overview of OSHA Manufacturing Requirements

The Occupational Safety and Health Administration, or OSHA, has laid out some very specific safety requirements for manufacturing. If you work in manufacturing, you must make sure that all your workers receive proper training in OSHA standards to stay in compliance.

OSHA has these standards for a good reason. Manufacturing involves the use of a great deal of heavy machinery, motorized equipment and moving parts, all of which put employees at considerable risk. There are millions of injuries in private workplaces every year, some extremely serious or even fatal. Among non-fatal injuries, manufacturing employees boast the highest average.

When it comes to manufacturing, OSHA has many safety issues to consider. Workers can slip, fall from catwalks, get hit by motorized vehicles, walk into objects, drop heavy objects on themselves, get caught in machinery and more. OSHA created these guidelines to make sure workers have the safest, healthiest conditions possible in manufacturing environments. It is incumbent upon manufacturing workplace managers to make sure their workers comply, both to avoid any legal or monetary penalties and for the safety of the people who work for you.

OSHA Compliance Training

To verify compliance, workers in manufacturing must undergo OSHA compliance training. This refers to a training program that covers all the changing OSHA standards related to manufacturing safety. It is a way to make sure your employees know and understand the rules so they can protect themselves and contribute to a safer work environment.

No manufacturer is exempt from OSHA safety guidelines. Whether you manufacture plastic parts, metal parts, chemicals, clothing, food, textiles or any of a range of other products, safety is paramount and you must conform to OSHA guidelines.
