NEW OSHA WORKPLACE POSTER - Publication 3165 - English -
You Have a Right to A Safe and Healthful Workplace
The new Plain Language poster (OSHA 3165) replaces OSHA's currently required workplace poster (OSHA 2203). As supplies of OSHA 2203 diminish, the new workplace poster will be phased in to take its place. Employers do not need to replace current 2203 posters. The OSHA 2203 poster will continue to be in compliance with OSHA regulations.
