Contractors and their workers are subject to a variety of health and safety regulations when working on government projects. These regulations assist keep the workplace safe and efficient. Along with OSHA, ANSI, NEC, and other organisations' standards, the US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) maintains a Safety and Health Requirements Manual to oversee these workers' operations.
