What the OSHA Requires in the Workplace
The OSHA Job Safety and Health: It’s the Law poster, available for free from OSHA, informs workers of their rights under the Occupational Safety and Health Act. All covered employers are required to display the poster in their workplace. Employers do not need to replace previous versions of the poster.
You can get a copy of the OSHA poster by: Ordering a print copy online from the OSHA Publications webpage. The English version is publication number 3165.
The poster must be 8.5×14 inches with 10 point font. It combines statements on worker rights, lifting safety, choking hazards, smoking policies, and more. Display in break rooms, entrances, and time clock areas. Physical posters are still recommended where employees work on site.
OSHA regulates most workplaces and requires safety signs at most locations where a hazard threatens the safety of a worker. Each safety sign is classified by hazard risk to help determine what sign to use, including DANGER, WARNING, and CAUTION.
Employers should ensure that this poster is placed where employees can see it—whether on a jobsite or in a manufacturing facility. It must be physically posted. There is no provision for maintaining an OSHA poster in an electronic format.
