OSHA 1910 and 1926

Key Differences:

  • Applicability: 1910.29 applies to general industry settings, while 1926.502 applies to construction sites.
  • Implementation: Construction sites often have more temporary installations and different site conditions compared to general industry, affecting guardrail placement and use.
  • Specific Requirements: Although both standards share similarities in terms of height, strength, and construction of guardrails, the construction standard (1926.502) often includes more specific details relevant to construction site hazards and operations.

Understanding these distinctions helps ensure compliance with the appropriate OSHA standards based on the work environment and regulatory requirements.
