New from OSHA: job safety and health poster

February 27, 2026

Washington — OSHA has released a new version of its poster informing workers of their rights under the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970, as part of the agency’s “OSHA Cares” initiative.

The Job Safety and Health Workplace Poster must be displayed in the workplace where workers can easily see it, per regulation 1903.2. OSHA says employers can use this version, which is available for free, or continue using an older version.

For employers under State Plan programs, a state version of the poster may be available. OSHA notes that federal government agencies must display the Federal Agency Poster.

Under the OSH Act, employees have a right to:

• A safe workplace

• Speak up about safety and health concerns without retaliation

• Report an injury or illness

• Have training in a manner they understand

• Be provided with required safety equipment

• Request an OSHA inspection and speak with the inspector

• File a complaint with OSHA about workplace hazards

• Ask for free safety and compliance assistance from OSHA at any time

The poster features a phone number – (800) 321-6742 (OSHA) – and a website (osha.gov/workers) that employees can use to contact the agency. It’s available in 16 different languages, including Spanish.
