Except for those listed below, PEOSH has adopted and put most of the following OSHA rules and regulations into practice:

 

• PEOSH Standards for Firefighters (NJAC 12:100-8) substitutes 29 CFR 1910 Subpart L.
• OSHA Hazard Communication Standard (29 CFR 1910.1200/NJAC 12:100-7) is centered on the Federal Standards

 

The four agencies and two different standards that makeup New Jersey's State Plan must be adhered to and incorporated by all residents who work there. However, most of the Safety Training Standards share some similarities.

 

The regulations that must be adhered to concerning businesses operating in the public sector are listed below:

 

• The New Jersey Department of Labor and Workforce Development (NJDLWD) is the regulatory body that authorizes Standards and attends to safety complaints.
• The New Jersey Department of Health (NJDOH) is the division in charge of health hazard complaints and enforcing Indoor Air Quality Standards.

 

The Office of Public Employees' Occupational Safety and Health, which functions as the regulatory arm of NJDLWD, carries out routine and complaint-specific observations (PEOSH).

 

Private businesses are expected to conduct themselves under Federal OSHA Training Requirements. Likewise, public firms must adhere rigorously to the PEOSH Training Regulations and complete the Federal OSHA training requirements.

 

Some of the most recent PEOSH Standards, however, bear no resemblance to Federal Standards, including:

• Indoor Air Quality Standard (NJAC 12:100-13)
• Indoor Firing Ranges Standard (NJAC 12:100-8)
