Emergency Preparedness
  
 
National Summary

General industry employers must comply with OSHA's emergency preparedness and response rules concerning exit routes, except mobile workplaces. Employers must comply with the requirements for employee emergency and fire prevention plans whenever a workplace activity or process covered by a specific OSHA standard requires such plans. Employers must also comply with OSHA rules that support and enhance emergency response efforts (e.g., medical services and first aid, PPE, employee alarm systems).
