Occupational Safety and Health Jurisdiction in Illinois

Illinois is one of 26 states (and 2 U.S. territories) to have an official state plan. It covers all state and local government workers under Illinois jurisdiction.

The state plan adopts all federal standards for general industry (29 CFR 1910), construction (29 CFR 1926), and shipyards (29 CFR 1915). Enforcement—including inspections, notifications, citations, penalties, and appeals—are handled by the Illinois Occupational Safety and Health Administration (Illinois OSHA), under the Illinois Department of Labor (IDOL).

The state plan also includes its own unique recordkeeping rule that differs from the federal system. It's applicable to state and local government employers only.

Since Illinois' state plan doesn't cover the private sector, that's still under federal OSHA's jurisdiction. Federal government workers also remain under federal OSHA, including the U.S. Postal Service and any civilian employees that work on military bases.

OSHA Illinois Training Requirements

Illinois' state plan means there are two separate enforcement agencies for workers in the state, as well as two sets of recordkeeping rules for employers. But since Illinois adopted §1910, 1915, and 1926 standards identically, the rules for training are the same for everyone.

OSHA requires training on specific safety standards that apply to your job functions. Its Outreach courses (sometimes referred to as "DOL cards") are safety orientations that cover common requirements for your industry. Even though OSHA doesn't require OSHA Outreach training, some employers might. In that case, you’ll either need an OSHA 10-Hour course for entry-level workers or an OSHA 30-Hour course for supervisors.

Benefits of OSHA Training for Workers in Illinois

OSHA’s primary goal of their required safety training is to increase employee awareness and understanding of jobsite hazards so they’re better prepared to avoid them. However, employers can also benefit from investing in OSHA training and can avoid OSHA noncompliance penalties, lower workers’ compensation costs, and increase workplace productivity.

It’s easy for us to say that OSHA training will keep workers safe, but we’re not making it up! Take a look at the statistics from OSHA, the Department of Labor, and other Illinois agencies. These statistics show how prevalent workplace injuries are and demonstrate the importance of safety training in preventing fatalities, accidents, and fines.

Federal and State OSHA Offices in Illinois

Since Illinois employers and workers are divided up into federal and state jurisdiction, there are separate local area offices for state and federal OSHA.

You need to contact a federal office if you're in the private sector, a federal agency, a military facility, a workplace with Indian sovereignty, the U.S. Postal Service, or a maritime employer (e.g. shipyards, marine terminals, longshoring).

There are five local area offices for federal OSHA in Illinois:

  • Chicago North (Des Plaines)
  • Chicago South (Tinley Park)
  • Fairview
  • Naperville
  • Peoria

You need to contact an Illinois state plan office if you're in the public sector, instead. That includes all state and local government employers and workers. There are three state plan offices in Illinois:

  • Chicago
  • Marion
  • Springfield

You can find the most up-to-date contact information for either type of Illinois OSHA office on OSHA's website.

Additional Illinois Resources for Safety Information

In addition to the information we have provided, you can visit Illinois state agency websites for more information on safety resources.
