Safety Rules and Standards: what each one requires and the equipment it names

How to use these pages

Each page takes one rule or standard that comes up in safety searches and lays it out the same way: the plain answer (what it covers and who it applies to), the operative paragraphs condensed with every paragraph linked to the government text at ecfr.gov and, where California has a twin, dir.ca.gov; a table of the equipment the rule names with the figure it sets and the paragraph it comes from; the products we carry whose manufacturers state that rating or standard, with current prices; and the questions buyers ask, answered from the rule text. The ANSI, NFPA and ASTM pages state what OSHA's rules and the manufacturers' published documents say about each standard, since the standards themselves are not free text.

The employer's hazard assessment decides which rule and which equipment apply to a job; these pages are the rule texts and the manufacturers' statements laid side by side, not a selection by Bayshore Safety. We sell nationwide; ships in 1–2 business days; most orders arrive in 3–7 business days.

OSHA general industry (29 CFR 1910)

OSHA 1910.23 Ladders

29 CFR 1910.23 requires every ladder in general industry to be inspected before initial use in each shift, to carry its maximum intended load, to have uniformly spaced rungs 10 to 14 inches apart, and to be used only for its design purpose, facing the ladder with at least one hand free; portable ladders are set at about a 4-to-1 angle, extend 3 feet above the landing or are secured with a grab, and are not tied together or placed on unstable bases.

Read the rule page (44 products listed).

ANSI/ISEA and ANSI/ASSP standards

ANSI/ASSP Z359.1 and the Z359 Fall Protection Code

ANSI/ASSP Z359.1, Safety Requirements for Personal Fall Arrest Systems, Subsystems and Components, is the top document of the Z359 Fall Protection Code (ANSI/ASSP Z359.0 through Z359.18), the consensus standards the American Society of Safety Professionals publishes for active fall protection. OSHA does not incorporate it by reference; 29 CFR 1910.140 and 1926.502 set the enforceable criteria, and OSHA's letters of interpretation treat Z359 as evidence of recognized practice. Read the rule page (71 products listed).

ANSI/ASSP Z359.11 Full Body Harnesses

ANSI/ASSP Z359.11, Safety Requirements for Full Body Harnesses, is the consensus standard manufacturers test harnesses to. OSHA does not incorporate it; 29 CFR 1910.140 and 1926.502(d) require a full body harness for fall arrest, attached at the center of the back near shoulder level or above the head, and prohibit body belts, and the Z359.11 label shows the manufacturer went further. Read the rule page (44 products listed).

ANSI/ASSP Z359.14 Self-Retracting Devices

ANSI/ASSP Z359.14-2021, Safety Requirements for Self-Retracting Devices for Personal Fall Arrest and Rescue Systems, is the consensus standard manufacturers test SRLs, personal SRLs (SRL-P) and retrieval SRLs (SRL-R) to. OSHA requires only that an SRL limiting free fall to 2 feet or less sustain 3,000 pounds fully extended (1910.140(c)(5), 1926.502(d)(12)) and that the system meet the 1,800 pound, 6 foot and 3.5 foot limits; the Z359.14 label shows the manufacturer tested the device to the Code. Read the rule page (57 products listed).

ANSI/ISEA 105 Hand Protection Classification

ANSI/ISEA 105 is the American National Standard for Hand Protection Classification. It is a voluntary rating system, not a rule: 29 CFR 1910.138(b) requires the employer to select gloves on an evaluation of their performance characteristics relative to the task, and the 105 levels on the glove are the performance characteristics manufacturers publish for that evaluation. Read the rule page (77 products listed).

ANSI/ISEA 107 High-Visibility Safety Apparel

ANSI/ISEA 107 is the American National Standard for High-Visibility Safety Apparel and Accessories. It is a voluntary consensus standard that manufacturers certify garments to; it becomes a requirement when a rule or contract invokes it, as the federal MUTCD does for workers on or near public roads (Class 2 or 3 garments), 23 CFR 634 does for workers in federal-aid highway rights of way, and 29 CFR 1926.201 does for flaggers through the MUTCD. Read the rule page (69 products listed).

ANSI/ISEA 138 Impact-Resistant Hand Protection

ANSI/ISEA 138 is the American National Standard for Performance and Classification for Impact-Resistant Hand Protection. It is a voluntary rating that manufacturers test to and mark; it becomes relevant to a rule through 29 CFR 1910.138(b), which requires gloves selected on their performance characteristics for the task, and through the oil and gas, mining and utility hand-injury programs that specify an impact level. Read the rule page (25 products listed).

ANSI/ISEA Z308.1 Minimum Requirements for Workplace First Aid Kits

ANSI/ISEA Z308.1 is the American National Standard for Minimum Requirements for Workplace First Aid Kits and Supplies. OSHA does not incorporate it as a rule; 29 CFR 1910.151(b) requires adequate first aid supplies to be readily available, and non-mandatory Appendix A says the contents listed in Z308.1 are adequate for small worksites, so a Z308.1 kit is the way most employers show they meet the paragraph. Read the rule page (51 products listed).

ANSI/ISEA Z358.1 Emergency Eyewash and Shower Equipment

ANSI/ISEA Z358.1 is the American National Standard for Emergency Eyewash and Shower Equipment. 29 CFR 1910.151(c) requires suitable facilities for quick drenching or flushing of the eyes and body within the work area wherever eyes or body may be exposed to injurious corrosive materials; OSHA's letters of interpretation refer employers to Z358.1 for what suitable means, and Cal/OSHA §5162 incorporates the standard directly. Read the rule page (36 products listed).

ANSI/ISEA Z87.1 Occupational Eye and Face Protection

ANSI/ISEA Z87.1 is the American National Standard for occupational and educational personal eye and face protection devices. OSHA requires protectors built to it: 29 CFR 1910.133(b) and 1926.102(b) name the 2010, 2003 and 1989 editions, and the current edition (manufacturers now mark to Z87.1-2020 and the 2025 revision) is accepted under OSHA's equivalence clause because each revision tests at least as hard. Read the rule page (69 products listed).

ANSI/ISEA Z89.1 Industrial Head Protection

ANSI/ISEA Z89.1 is the American National Standard for Industrial Head Protection. OSHA requires helmets built to it: 29 CFR 1910.135(b) and 1926.100(b) name the 2009, 2003 and 1997 editions, and later editions (2014 and the 2025 revision manufacturers now mark) are accepted under the equivalence clause. Read the rule page (39 products listed).

NFPA and ASTM standards

ASTM F1506 Flame Resistant and Arc Rated Textile Materials for Electrical Workers

ASTM F1506 is the Standard Performance Specification for Flame Resistant and Electric Arc Rated Protective Clothing Worn by Workers Exposed to Flames and Electric Arcs. It is not incorporated by OSHA as a rule; 29 CFR 1910.269(l)(8) requires arc-rated protection at or above the estimated incident energy and bans meltable fabrics, and its Appendix E explains that arc ratings come from ASTM F1506 testing, while NFPA 70E requires arc-rated apparel to meet F1506. Read the rule page (56 products listed).

ASTM F2413 Performance Requirements for Protective (Safety) Toe Cap Footwear

ASTM F2413 is the Standard Specification for Performance Requirements for Protective (Safety) Toe Cap Footwear, and ASTM F2412 is the test method it uses. 29 CFR 1910.136(b)(1) requires protective footwear to meet ASTM F2412-05 and F2413-05 (or ANSI Z41-1999 or 1991), and later editions (F2413-11, -17, -18, -24) are accepted under the equivalence clause of (b)(2); Cal/OSHA §3385(c) names the same ASTM editions for footwear bought after January 26, 2007. Read the rule page (29 products listed).

NFPA 2112 Flame-Resistant Clothing for Protection Against Short-Duration Thermal Exposures from Fire

NFPA 2112, Standard on Flame-Resistant Clothing for Protection of Industrial Personnel Against Short-Duration Thermal Exposures from Fire, is the NFPA consensus standard for garments worn where a flash fire (a rapidly moving flame front from an ignited gas or vapor release, lasting about 3 seconds) can occur. OSHA does not incorporate it; 29 CFR 1910.132(a) and (d) require protective clothing selected by the hazard assessment, and OSHA's 2010 memorandum on flame-resistant clothing in oil and gas well drilling, servicing and production states that FR clothing is required where flash fire hazards exist and that garments meeting NFPA 2112 meet the intent. NFPA 2113 is the companion on selection, care and use. Read the rule page (57 products listed).

NFPA 70E Standard for Electrical Safety in the Workplace

NFPA 70E, Standard for Electrical Safety in the Workplace, is the National Fire Protection Association's consensus standard for protecting employees from shock and arc flash; the current edition is 2024. OSHA has not incorporated it by reference; its rules are 29 CFR 1910.332 to 1910.335 (Subpart S work practices), 1910.132(d) (hazard assessment) and 1910.269(l)(8) (arc-rated clothing for utility work), and OSHA's letters of interpretation and citations treat 70E as the recognized means of meeting them. It is NFPA 70, the National Electrical Code, that covers installation; 70E covers the worker. Read the rule page (73 products listed).

Safety rules questions

Which OSHA rule covers PPE in general? 29 CFR 1910.132 in general industry and 1926.95 in construction: the hazard assessment, selection, fit, payment and training that the specific rules for eyes (1910.133), head (1910.135), feet (1910.136), hands (1910.138), hearing (1910.95), respirators (1910.134) and fall protection (1910.28, 1910.140) sit under.

Does OSHA require ANSI-rated equipment? Where a rule incorporates the standard by reference, yes: 1910.133 and 1926.102 require ANSI Z87.1 eye protection, 1910.135 and 1926.100 require ANSI Z89.1 helmets, and 1910.136 requires ASTM F2413 (or ANSI Z41) footwear. ANSI/ISEA 105, 107 and 138, the Z359 Fall Protection Code, NFPA 70E and NFPA 2112 are not incorporated; OSHA enforces the underlying hazard through 1910.132 and treats those standards as recognized practice.

What is the difference between OSHA and ANSI? OSHA rules are federal regulations with the force of law and set the minimum; ANSI standards are voluntary consensus documents written by industry committees (ISEA for PPE, ASSP for fall protection) that OSHA may adopt by reference or point to in interpretations. Manufacturers test to the ANSI standard and state it on the product, which is what the equipment tables on these pages list.

Where is the Cal/OSHA version of each rule? Each page links the California Title 8 twin where one exists: §3380 to §3385 for PPE, §5144 respirators, §5095 to §5100 noise, §1670 fall protection in construction, §3209 and §3210 guardrails, §3277 fixed ladders, §5157 confined spaces, §5162 eyewash, §3400 first aid, §2940.6 insulating equipment, with the figures that differ (7 1/2 feet, 30 inches, 85 dBA) stated.

The ratings, test results and standards shown here are the manufacturers' published values, reproduced as published. Nothing on this page is a recommendation by Bayshore Safety that any product is suitable for a particular task, hazard or workplace. Selecting safety products and protective equipment is the responsibility of the end user and the employer, based on their own hazard assessment and the regulations that apply to their work. Confirm every value on the manufacturer's own documentation before use.
