Alabama does not have a federally approved occupational safety and health regulatory program. Consequently, occupational safety and health in the private sector workplace is governed by the federal OSH Act. There is no state law that governs workplace safety in the public sector (state and local agencies, school systems).
OSHA administers and enforces workplace safety and health rules for private sector workplaces in the state.
