OSHA Training in Santa Ana CA

The State of California, under an agreement with Federal OSHA, operates an approved State Plan OSHA Program, commonly known as Cal-OSHA. Initial approval of the California State Plan was published on May 1, 1973, and certification for completing all developmental steps was received on August 19, 1977. That is why most, but not all, employers in Santa Ana California must comply with Cal/OSHA safety orders requiring employees be provided with applicable OSHA training.

Employers in need of Federal or Cal/OSHA Training in Santa Ana CA can get the training they need from OSHA Training Services Inc., because they offer on site OSHA and Cal-OSHA training classes on all key OSHA topics and titles for employers located in the Santa Ana area (see any OSHA training course link below on this page to get information about an on site class for your group).

CA OSHA Training Regulations and Standards

Health and safety standards in the State of California are significantly different than those of Federal OSHA. The Occupational Safety and Health Standards Board is a standard setting agency within the Cal-OSHA program, which includes development and maintenance of standards for certain areas not covered by federal standards or enforcement. These latter standards apply to elevators, aerial passenger tramways, amusement rides, pressure vessels, and mine safety training.

Cal-OSHA health and safety standards (also known as safety orders under Title 8) are available on the California DOL website.

The California State Plan applies to all public and private sector places of employment in Santa Ana CA and the rest of the state, with the exception of Federal employees, the United States Postal Service (USPS), private sector employers on Native American lands, maritime activities on the navigable waterways of the United States, private contractors working on land designated as exclusive Federal jurisdiction, and employers that require Federal security clearances.
