OSHA Compliance Plan Requirements in Kentucky

A comprehensive OSHA-specific compliance program covering Injury and Illness Prevention (IIPP), hazard communication (HazCom/GHS), emergency procedures, and OSHA recordkeeping requirements.

All employers with employees are subject to OSHA regulations. Employers with 11+ employees must maintain OSHA 300 logs. States with state OSHA plans may require additional written programs.

Kentucky operates its own OSHA-approved state plan through Kentucky OSH (KRS Chapter 338). This means Kentucky businesses must meet requirements that can be more stringent than federal OSHA standards.
