Occupational Safety and Health Jurisdiction in New Jersey

New Jersey is one of 26 states (and 2 U.S. territories) to have an official state plan. The New Jersey Public Employees Occupational Safety and Health (PEOSH) State Plan covers the agencies and authorities of state, county, and local governments, along with school districts and fire departments (paid and volunteer).

PEOSH identically adopted all relevant OSHA standards with the following exceptions:

The New Jersey plan also allows them to introduce standards that don't have an applicable federal standard, like:

Public sector enforcement is a little complicated in New Jersey:

Since New Jersey's 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 New Jersey Training Requirements

New Jersey's state plan means there are two separate standards and four agencies to parse out for workers in the state, but for the most part, training rules are the same.

Public employees may need additional training based on PEOSH-only standards, but they also need the training required by federal OSHA standards that PEOSH adopted as-is.

Everyone under federal jurisdiction only needs to worry about the specific safety standards for which OSHA requires training.

OSHA New Jersey also has Outreach courses (sometimes referred to as "DOL cards") 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 New Jersey Training for Workers

While the primary and most important benefit of OSHA training will always be to prevent workplace injuries and fatalities, employers can also benefit from an investment in OSHA training. When your business requires safety training for all their employees they can avoid OSHA noncompliance penalties, lower their workers’ compensation costs, and increase workplace productivity.

It’s easy to say that workplace safety training will keep employees safe, but once you look at the below statistics from OSHA, the Department of Labor, and other New Jersey agencies, there will be no doubt in your mind.

Fatal Occupational Injuries in New Jersey

According to data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics, there were a total of 116 fatal occupational injuries in New Jersey in 2022, while nationally there were 5,486 fatal occupational injuries.

Of the 116 fatalities:

  • 46 were the result of transportation incidents
  • 19 were the result of falls, slips, and trips
  • 18 were the result of violence and other injuries by persons or animals
  • 21 were the result of exposure to harmful substances or environments

The industries with the most fatalities included:

  • 19 in administrative and waste services
  • 6 in manufacturing
  • 4 in state government

Federal and State OSHA Offices in New Jersey

Since New Jersey 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 four local area offices for federal OSHA in New Jersey:

  • Avenel
  • Hasbrouck Heights
  • Marlton
  • Parsippany

The Public Employees Occupational Safety and Health (PEOSH) office is in Trenton. They are your point of contact if you work in the public sector, including state, county, or local government agencies, public authorities, fire departments, and school districts.

If you need to contact either state or federal offices, you can find their contact information on the federal OSHA website.

Additional New Jersey Resources for Safety Information

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

New Jersey Department of Labor & Workforce Development: This state agency includes a wide variety of support and services for both employees and employers, including leave and disability claims, workers’ compensation, employer posters, and much more.

New Jersey Department of Health: Here you’ll find more detailed information about New Jersey’s workplace health and safety programs.
