  1. Which references cover the program and work practices for the workplace safety and health requirements?

    Answer: Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970-PL-91-596 requires employers to provide a safe and healthful workplace. 29 CFR 1910 General Industrial Standards and 29 CFR 1926 Construction Standards govern the specific workplace program requirements. These are the Federal laws that will most frequently apply to your contracts but, depending on the scope of work, other Federal codes such as 29 CFR 1940 Environmental may apply.
