Frequently Asked Questions

The specific programs required depend on your work activities. Almost all construction companies need a Hazard Communication Program, Fall Protection Plan, and Emergency Action Plan. Additional programs (confined space, LOTO, excavation, scaffolding, etc.) are required based on the hazards your workers face. Our Small Contractor Guide helps you identify what you need.
All templates are provided in editable Word format. Replace the placeholder company name with yours, add your logo, fill in project-specific details, and modify any sections to match your specific operations. The regulatory framework and required elements are already structured correctly.
Written safety programs should be reviewed at least annually and updated whenever there are changes in regulations, work processes, equipment, or after any incident that reveals program deficiencies. Most OSHA standards with program requirements specify review intervals.
