Executive Summary

The OSHA Field Safety and Health Manual, ADM 04-00-003 Instruction (OSHA SHMS Manual) establishes the OSHA Safety and Health Management System (SHMS). The OSHA SHMS Manual establishes occupational safety and health programs for implementation in OSHA regions, the technical center, and Office of Training and Education. The OSHA SHMS Manual chapters establish baseline requirements which may be supplemented locally within established guidelines to protect the safety and health of OSHA personnel, including temporary and contract employees. Local SHMS committees may approve SHMS implementation changes; however, SHMS program policies require National Labor-Management SHMS Executive Steering Committee's (ESC) review and approval.

The chapter is designed to recognize, reduce, or prevent the spread of infectious diseases in the workplace. It promotes awareness, infection control practices, and proper personal protective equipment (PPE) usage for OSHA personnel. The chapter was written by a workgroup comprised of labor and management representatives and has been reviewed and approved by the OSHA Field SHMS Executive Steering Committee (ESC). The updated chapter completed OSHA 201 clearance through all OSHA Directorates, Regional Offices, and the Solicitor of Labor. This newly created chapter will be incorporated into the Field’s OSHA SHMS Manual ADM 04-00-003 Instruction.

Significant Changes

The OSHA SHMS Manual, Chapter 28, "Infectious Disease Awareness" is a new chapter program that provides information, a purpose and scope of the chapter to include guidance and accountability of all OSHA personnel. This revision also details the responsibilities of OSHA personnel and the procedures related to the OSHA SHMS Manual instruction’s maintenance and implementation. The key areas incorporated into this chapter are as follow:

  • Definitions of common terminology
  • Reference to resources that will provide current information on infectious diseases
  • Incorporation of industry best practices and recommendations of preventative measures
  • Details of the roles and responsibilities of OSHA National and Field personnel
  • Guidance for hazard assessment, staff notifications and incident reporting
  • Information and resources on infectious disease in several appendices

Executive Summary

This Instruction establishes a Safety and Health Management System (SHMS) for OSHA employees. The Instruction also establishes safety and health programs, as identified in subsequent chapters, for Directorate/Regional implementation.

The SHMS and its programs establish baseline requirements and within established guidelines, may be supplemented or augmented to ensure the safety and health of all OSHA employees as well as temporary and contract employees. Changes related to the implementation of SHMS may be made with local SHMS committee approval. Changes to the SHMS or programs that alter SHMS or program policies require National Labor-Management Steering Committee review and approval.

The SHMS and its programs will be implemented in phases per the timetable that will be provided by Directorate of Technical Support and Emergency Management (DTSEM). Nothing in the instruction eliminates the Regional Administrator or Directorate’s obligations to comply with OSHA or other Federal Regulations and Executive Orders.

Significant Changes

The Chapter 2 – Safety and Health Management System was revised to incorporate updated information that expanded the purpose and scope of the chapter to include guidance and accountability of all OSHA personnel. This revision also clarifies the responsibilities of OSHA employees and bring consistency across OSHA regarding the procedures and assessments related to the OSHA SHMS Manual instruction’s maintenance and implementation.

  • Revised to include sections on purpose, scope, definitions, and references.
  • Included detailed information and guidance related to pilot studies and field SHMSrelated workgroups.
  • Updated the Hazard Tracking Log.
  • Conducted a revision of the Incident Investigation and Hazard Reporting Worksheet to include property damage, best practices, and workplace violence.
  • Provided clarity on employee and management Field SHMS participation (i.e., required training and training schedule options).
  • Updated terminology and verbiage throughout the chapter to reflect updates and goals of the agency as they relate to the field’s safety and health programs.

Nothing in the instruction eliminates the Regional Administrator or Directorate’s obligations to comply with OSHA or other Federal Regulations and Executive Orders. 

Significant Changes

Appendix B from Chapter 22: Electrical Safety was removed because the equipment listed was not meeting the desired intent, which was to list equipment that requires advanced training (i.e. Qualified Persons). The need for on-the-job training, approval, and potentially Qualified Persons training before using electrical testing equipment was clarified in a way that allows flexibility in the Regions and as equipment changes.
