What GCs in Tennessee check for
Cal/OSHA asks for it on every inspection, and California GCs ask for it with the site-specific plan. The reviewer looks for the person responsible, the inspection schedule, the communication system, and the training and records sections.
In Tennessee, Tennessee OSHA is the enforcing agency. Where the state has its own requirement on this subject, the plan carries a Tennessee section that says so.
- TOSHA enforces the state program, which adopts federal 1926 with Tennessee additions.
- Nashville's building boom means GC pre-mob submittals are reviewed on a schedule; late plans delay badging.
Reviewers check for named people with a basis, hazards matched to scope, and a signature page. All three are built in, written to Cal/OSHA Title 8 3203.
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 Tennessee California subs
- Do I need an IIPP for work in Tennessee?
- Tennessee does not require an IIPP by that name, but Tennessee OSHA (TOSHA) expects a written safety program covering the same eight elements, and GCs and insurers ask for one. This program serves that purpose and is the IIPP you need if you also work in California.
- Is this the same as a site-specific safety plan?
- No. The IIPP is company-wide and covers how you find and fix hazards everywhere you work. The site-specific plan applies it to one project. The program includes project-specific sections for the job you enter, and the Full Suite includes both.
- Does a injury and illness prevention program have to be state-specific in Tennessee?
- Tennessee runs its own state plan, enforced by Tennessee OSHA (TOSHA), so the plan follows federal 1926 plus the state's additions. Your plan is written for the project address, and where Tennessee 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.
