OSHA Training in Provo Utah

The State of Utah operates an approved State OSHA Program (UOSH). The Utah state plan was initially approved on January 10, 1973 and was granted final state plan approval on July 16, 1985.

Regulations and Standards

Utah adopted most Federal OSHA standards identically, but the state periodically supplements Federal standards with additional requirements. These supplements are placed in the Utah Administrative Code R614 and can be found at the Utah State Plan Website. Supplements to federal standards found in the Administrative Code include the following:

• R614-1-4
  • Section C – Recordkeeping
  • Section D – Employer/Employee Responsibility
  • Section E – General Safety Requirements
• R614-1-5 Personal Protective Equipment
• R614-4 Hazardous Materials

Utah has several unique vertical state standards for the following industries which are also located in R614.

Jurisdiction

The Utah State Plan applies to all public and private sector places of employment in Provo and the rest of the State of Utah, with the exception of Federal employees, the United States Postal Service (USPS), private sector maritime, Hill Air Force Base, Tooele Army Depot which includes the Tooele Chemical Demilitarization Facility, and certain agricultural related operations (field sanitation and temporary labor camps), which are subject to Federal OSHA jurisdiction.
