OSHA Safety Training For All Washington Industries Statewide
Named after George Washington, the first President of the United States, the state was made out of the western part of the Washington Territory which had been ceded by Britain in 1846 by the Oregon Treaty as a settlement of the Oregon Boundary Dispute. It was admitted to the Union as the 42nd state in 1889.
Washington is a leading lumber producer, including Douglas fir, hemlock, ponderosa and white pine, spruce, larch, and cedar. The state is the biggest producer of apples, hops, pears, red raspberries, spearmint oil, and sweet cherries, and ranks high in the production of apricots, asparagus, dry edible peas, grapes, lentils, peppermint oil, and potatoes. Livestock and livestock products make important contributions to total farm revenue, and the commercial fishing of salmon, halibut, and bottomfish makes a significant contribution to the state’s economy. Manufacturing industries in Washington include aircraft and missiles, shipbuilding and other transportation equipment, lumber, food processing, metals and metal products, chemicals, and machinery. Washington has over 1,000 dams, including the Grand Coulee Dam, built for a variety of purposes including irrigation, power, flood control, and water storage.
In January of 1982, OSHA certified Washington’s state plan for health and safety management. The Washington State Plan is administered by the Department of Labor and Industries (DL&I), Division of Occupational Safety and Health (DOSH). The main office is located in Tumwater, Washington. You may view the Washington State OSHA Plan here. The Washington State Plan applies to all state and local government and private sector workplaces in the state with the exception of federal government workers. Federal government workers, including those employed by the United States Postal Service; private contractors on military reservations and national parks; floating maritime operations; tribal operations and tribal member employers on Indian Reservations and Trust Lands; and certain contractors within the boundary of the Hanford Reservation, the Hanford Reach National Monument not regulated by Department of Energy, or the state of Washington, are covered by OSHA.
DOSH has adopted all OSHA standards that would relate to state and local government and private sector workplace operations. DOSH has adopted most OSHA standards by reference. There are five state-specific standards in effect at this time:
- Toxic Chemical Handling and Exposure
- Agriculture
- Child Labor
- Heat Exposure
- Noise Exposure
State workers are governed by Washington OSHA Safety Training laws for education and training purposes. Our OSHA Outreach Training programs for Construction and General Industry are designed to comply with all Washington OSHA Safety Training criteria and are accepted in all 50 states, including Washington.
