State Plan Responses to New
Federal OSHA Standards and Federal Program Changes
– Beginning June 2006
As part of an effort to make information on State Plan standards and
policies/directives more readily accessible, OSHA and the Occupational Safety
and Health State Plan Association (OSHSPA) have developed a system for
displaying the State Plans’ responses to Federal standards and directives issued
after May 2006. State Plan States are required to have standards, policies and
procedures at least as effective as those of Federal OSHA and to respond to
significant new changes to the Federal program. The following tables display how
each State has responded to each new standard or directive issued. Where the
State has adopted a standard or policy that is different than the Federal, the
table provides either a direct link to the State’s standard, policy or procedure
posted on a State website, or information on how to obtain a copy from the
State. In addition, each new Federal standard or directive posted on OSHA’s
website will link back to the appropriate table on this page - 6 months after
issuance. This system of dynamic links should provide consolidated access to
information about new Federal and parallel State Plan standards and policies.
Tables will be added for each new OSHA standard or policy directive - 6 months
after issuance.
