Iowa has adopted the federal requirements for written safety plans for specific activities (e.g., bloodborne pathogens exposure control plan, hazard communication plan) and for specific hazardous substances in both private and public sector workplaces. There are no addition state-specific requirements for safety plans.
Employers should investigate workers’ compensation insurance incentives and rebates that may be available to workplaces that establish and maintain an effective workplace safety and health program.
The Iowa Workforce Development/Division of Labor Services administers and enforces workplace safety rules for private and public sector workplaces in the state.
