Create OSHA Plans

You can create, complete, and download all required OSHA plans in Bridge Compliance.

OSHA plans are a required part of workplace safety compliance. They outline how your practice prevents and responds to health and safety risks.

Healthcare and dental employers are required by OSHA to maintain written plans for:

• Bloodborne Pathogens Exposure Control Plan
• Hazard Communication Plan

Note: If your staff is required to wear N-95 masks in the office, you must also complete the Respiratory Protection Standard Plan.

Time to complete this requirement: 30-45 minutes
