Description
According to OSHA’s standards (CFR 1910.38), employers are required to develop and communicate an emergency action plan. Employers with more than ten employees must maintain a written emergency action plan that is accessible to all employees. Employers with ten or fewer employees may communicate their emergency action plan verbally.
It is important that everyone, from management to front-line employees, understands what actions to take during an emergency.
