Site-Specific Safety Plan for subcontractors in Indiana.
Pre-mob paperwork due and the Site-Specific Safety Plan is the one holding up the badge? Answer ten questions and it is written for the project, not copied from a template.
What GCs in Indiana check for
The GC's safety director checks it against the subcontract's safety exhibit before you can badge in: named competent persons with a basis, hazards matched to your scope, an emergency plan with the nearest hospital, a training and orientation section, and a signature page. A corporate manual does not pass; it has to name this project.
Because the project is in Indiana, the plan's state section covers what Indiana OSHA and local GCs ask about beyond the federal baseline.
- IOSHA enforces the state program, which adopts federal 1926 with Indiana additions.
Nothing in it is boilerplate you have to hunt through: the hazards come from your tasks and equipment, the controls from a library written to ANSI A10.33 project structure, OSHA 1926 subparts by hazard, and the USACE A-02 reviewer checklist.
Nothing here is OSHA-approved, because nothing is. What you get is a plan that names the right people, matches the scope, and is signed by you.

Questions from Indiana subs
- What do GCs in Indiana ask for in a site-specific safety plan?
- The same core elements across Indianapolis and Fort Wayne: scope of work, a hazard analysis by task, controls for each hazard, named competent persons, an emergency plan with the nearest hospital, training and orientation, incident reporting, and a signed acceptance page. IOSHA enforces the state program, which adopts federal 1926 with Indiana additions.
- Is a corporate safety manual enough?
- Usually not. Subcontract safety exhibits ask for a plan written for this project: the project name, the GC, the scope, the site's hazards, and the people on this crew. That is what the plan generates.
- Does a site-specific safety plan have to be state-specific in Indiana?
- Indiana runs its own state plan, enforced by Indiana OSHA (IOSHA), so the plan follows federal 1926 plus the state's additions. Your plan is written for the project address, and where Indiana has its own rule on the subject the plan says so and applies the stricter requirement.
- Is this OSHA-approved?
- No document is. OSHA and the state programs do not approve written plans; they inspect against them. This plan is prepared from your answers, says so on page one, and you adopt and implement it. That is what a GC's safety director is checking for.
- How long does it take?
- About 15 minutes of questions on your phone, then the documents generate in under two minutes. Word and PDF, English and Spanish, with your logo on the cover.
- What if the GC asks for changes?
- Edit your answers and regenerate as often as you like for 30 days at no charge. Every version stays downloadable. If it is not what you needed, reply to any of our emails within 30 days for a full refund.
