Which Rules Apply in Grand Rapids
Grand Rapids employers answer to MIOSHA, not federal OSHA
Michigan runs an OSHA-approved state plan covering private and public sector. A state plan must be at least as effective as the federal programme, and may go further — which is why a business in Grand Rapids can owe requirements that a business one state over does not.
Requirements beyond the federal standards
- Right to Know — Part 92
- Infectious Disease — Emergency Rules
- Construction Safety — Part 1-45
Local enforcement
