Where must the site safety and health plan be kept?

The site safety and health plan must be kept on-site to ensure that it is readily accessible to all personnel who may need it in the event of an emergency or during routine operations. This accessibility is crucial for ensuring that workers can quickly review the procedures, protocols, and safety measures relevant to the specific hazards they encounter.

Having the plan on-site allows for prompt communication of safety procedures and ensures compliance with regulatory requirements. It also facilitates immediate reference in emergency situations, enhancing the safety and preparedness of the team.

Other locations such as the corporate office, local emergency room, or nearest fire department do not provide the immediate access necessary for effective safety management on-site. In the context of HAZWOPER regulations, the emphasis is placed on ensuring that safety resources are available exactly where they are needed, which is why on-site storage is the correct answer.
