Emergency Action Plan Requirements in Alaska

An OSHA-compliant emergency action plan covering evacuation procedures, shelter-in-place protocols, active threat response, medical emergencies, natural disasters, and emergency drill requirements.

Required by OSHA for all employers who require employees to evacuate during emergencies (29 CFR 1910.38). Employers with 10 or fewer employees may communicate the plan orally. Larger employers must have a written plan.

Alaska operates its own OSHA-approved state plan through Alaska OSHA (Alaska Statutes 18.60). This means Alaska businesses must meet requirements that can be more stringent than federal OSHA standards.
