The OSH Act was written so that any state standard
and enforced requirement must be at least as effective
as the federal requirements. Therefore, in instances
where there are state requirements, employers who are
in compliance with state requirements will be in compliance
with federal requirements. There are 21 states and
2 territories that have plans covering public and private
sector employers. Two additional states have plans
that apply just to public sector employers.
