Alabama is not a “state-plan” state; that is, it does not have a federally approved occupational safety and health program. Consequently, occupational safety and health in the private sector workplace is governed by the federal Occupational Safety and Health (OSH) Act. There are no state or federal laws that govern workplace safety in public sector workplaces (state and local agencies and school systems).
The U.S. Department of Labor/Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) administers and enforces federal workplace safety and health requirements in the private sector in Alabama.
