Maryland State Plan: Ensuring Workplace Safety and Health through MOSH


Maryland has a state-operated occupational safety and health plan known as the Maryland Occupational Safety and Health (MOSH) program. MOSH operates as part of the Maryland Division of Labor and Industry, which is responsible for overseeing labor-related matters in the state. The MOSH program is designed to enforce safety and health standards in both public and private sector workplaces within Maryland. It adopts federal OSHA standards and has the authority to develop and enforce its own standards if they are more stringent than the federal requirements. MOSH conducts inspections, investigations, and provides education and training to promote safe and healthy working conditions for Maryland workers.
