OSHA Puts Explosives Manufacturing into Nation Emphasis Program


The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) issued a notice on July 27, 2009 that it was adding explosives manufacturing to its National Emphasis Program (NEP).  The notice names “Explosives manufacturing codes NAICS codes” as a target of the NEP.


Other current NEPs are listed on OSHA’s website.

NEPs are used by OSHA to look at facilities in limited geographic areas that they believe should be considered for inspection by the regional offices.
