Indiana Safety Program for Concrete Contractors
Requirements
Indiana requires employers to maintain a written Safety Program under IC 22-8-1.1. This applies to concrete contractor operations including concrete placement, finishing, formwork, reinforcement, silica exposure from cutting and grinding. Indiana OSHA enforces these requirements through inspections.
What Your Safety Program Must Cover
For concrete contractor, your safety program must address the specific hazards of your operations. This includes hazard identification procedures, employee training requirements, incident investigation protocols, and documentation of safety inspections. Indiana-specific citations and requirements are built into every section.
Trade-Specific Hazards
Concrete Contractor operations involve concrete placement, finishing, formwork, reinforcement, silica exposure from cutting and grinding. Your safety program must identify these hazards, prescribe controls, and document training for each one. Generic templates miss the trade-specific requirements that Indiana OSHA inspectors look for.
Additional Programs You May Need
Depending on your specific operations, Indiana concrete contractors may also need a Hazard Communication Program (29 CFR 1910.1200), Fall Protection Plan (29 CFR 1926.502(k)), and Emergency Action Plan (29 CFR 1910.38).
