Engineering and Design: Occupational Safety and Health Standards

Abstract

This letter provides guidance on the application of the Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSHA) Standards in the design of facilities. This letter applies to all HQUSACE/OCE elements and to all field operating activities (FOA) having civil works and/or military construction design responsibilities. The requirements for Federal agencies to have safety standards, at least equivalent to the OSHA Standards, are established by law (Sec. 10a., PL 91-596 and 29 CFR 1960, 42b.), by presidential Directive (Sec. 2 and 3, Executive Order 12196), and by DoD Directive 1000.3.
