OSHA Directive - National Emergency Management Plan

OSHA Directive: The National Emergency Management Plan (NEMP) clarifies procedures and policy for OSHA’s National Office and Regional offices during responses to nationally significant incidents. The NEMP establishes OSHA’s Emergency Preparedness Executive Steering Committee, and requires that each Region create a Regional Emergency Management Plan (REMP) and proactively coordinate with State plan States and Consultation Projects. In addition, the NEMP outlines procedures to ensure that trained and equipped personnel, and logistical and operational assistance are in place to support OSHA’s role as the primary Federal agency for the coordination of technical assistance and consultation for emergency response and recovery worker health and safety.
