samplesafetyprogramoutlines

This is a sample outline or table of contents for a Safety Program for a company in a general industry catagory such
as a manufacturer, distributor, or service industry. Every safety program must be tailored to meet the needs of the particular
organization and based on the specific hazards and exposures inherent in that operation. Some of the sections may not apply to
your operations, while others need to be added to cover hazards in your operations. Many of the sections are required by OSHA
standards which require a written policy or program. You should modify this "generic" program outline to meet your particular needs.

This is a sample outline or table of contents for a Safety Program for a construction company. Every safety program must
be tailored to meet the needs of the particular organization and based on the specific hazards and exposures inherent in that
operation. Some of the sections may not apply to your operations, while others need to be added to cover hazards in your
operations. For example, an electrical contractor would need to add a section on electrical safety. Many of the sections are
required by OSHA standards which require a written policy or program. You should modify this "generic" program outline to
meet your particular needs.
