OSHA is the US Occupational Safety and Health Administration, the federal agency responsible for setting and enforcing workplace safety and health standards within its jurisdiction. It works to protect workers by setting and enforcing occupational safety and health standards and by providing training, outreach, education, and assistance.
Workplace coverage is administered through federal OSHA or OSHA-approved State Plans, depending on jurisdiction. State Plans must be at least as effective as the federal program and can have different or additional requirements. The applicable obligations depend on the workplace, activity, and jurisdiction.
OSHA is the agency; individual regulations address particular hazards and activities. For forklift operations, 29 CFR 1910.178 is the general industry powered industrial truck standard. A safety technology installation does not by itself establish compliance with all applicable OSHA requirements.
