When is a written employer safety plan required?

  1. If the employer has 10 or more employees

  2. If the employer has 15 or more employees

  3. If the employer has 20 or more employees

  4. If the employer has 25 or more employees

The correct answer is: If the employer has 15 or more employees

A written employer safety plan is required when the employer has 15 or more employees because this threshold is set to ensure that safety protocols are established and documented in workplaces with a substantial number of workers. This requirement is part of various occupational safety regulations aimed at promoting health and safety in the workplace, ensuring that employers take proactive measures to safeguard their employees against potential hazards. Having 15 or more employees typically indicates a level of complexity in operations that can introduce various safety risks. Therefore, a structured safety plan becomes essential to effectively manage those risks, implement safety training, and outline emergency procedures. Smaller operations may be able to manage safety informally without a comprehensive written plan, but as the workforce grows, the need for formalized policies and procedures increases to address the potential for more significant workplace hazards.
