What is the role of state OSHA programs in regulating benzene?

Regulation of benzene

Twenty-six states have their own Occupational Safety and Health Administration or "OSHA" programs. These OSHA-approved State Plan programs set standards which are "at least as effective as" Federal OSHA standards for many safety issues including handling and exposure to dangerous chemicals such as benzene. State plans provide assistance and extend their authority to most private sector and all public sector ( state and local government ) employers and employees in those States, including first and second responders. Visit State Occupational Safety and Health Plans to verify your state's status and search for standards that may apply to you.
