Oklahoma is one of the American states that does not have its own Official State Plan, along with a number of other states, and as a result, falls under the purview of Federal OSHA.
OSHA urges entry-level employees to participate in OSHA 10 Hour courses even though OSHA courses are not legally mandatory, while OSHA 30 Hour courses are advised for employees in supervisory roles. This is because the majority of firms in Oklahoma require it and the courses give employees important workplace safety understanding.
Employees in the public sector, including those working for cities, counties, and states, are also under the control of the Public Workers Occupational Safety & Health Division (PEOSH).
OSHA has significant asbestos rules in addition to Oklahoma’s Asbestos Abatement Program’s efforts to ensure compliance with the Oklahoma Asbestos Control Act. Additionally, the Act mandates training for workers who might come into contact with asbestos.
