Local information for Brownsville Occupational Testing

While many states operate under a state-developed occupational health and safety plan, Texas is not one of them. This means that the majority of Texas employers instead fall under the jurisdiction of federal Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) laws and regulations. These laws and regulations require private employers to supply employees and customers with a safe workplace that is free of recognized hazards.

Bear in mind that while federal OSHA laws apply to most private Brownsville employers, the OSHA ruling cannot overrule various Texas laws that provide employees and employers more protection. Some of those laws include the various Texas Administrative Codes mentioned above that relate to disease prevention in the corrections and healthcare industries.
