What Professionals Say

★★★★★

Had an OSHA complaint inspection last year. The inspector asked for our written safety plan within the first 5 minutes. We had this template on file. Inspection closed with zero citations.

— Marcus L., GC with 8 employees
★★★★★

My insurance carrier gave us a premium discount for having a documented safety program. The template paid for itself 100x over.

— Diana T., construction company owner
★★★★★

Used this for our pre-job safety orientation. New subs sign the subcontractor safety responsibilities section before they step on site.

— Kevin R., project superintendent

Frequently Asked Questions

Does OSHA require a written safety plan for contractors?
OSHA 29 CFR 1926 requires written safety programs for specific hazards (fall protection, hazard communication, confined space). Any employer with construction employees is subject to these requirements. A comprehensive written safety plan documents your compliance and reduces liability in the event of an inspection or incident.
How often should I update my construction safety plan?
Review and update annually at minimum, and whenever there is a significant change in scope (e.g., adding a new trade, starting work in a new jurisdiction), a near-miss or incident, or a new OSHA regulation takes effect.
What happens if OSHA inspects and I don't have a written safety plan?
OSHA can issue citations with penalties up to $15,625 per serious violation and $156,259 per willful/repeat violation. A written safety plan is your first line of defense — it demonstrates that hazards were identified and workers were trained, even if an incident occurs.
