Organizations & Standards
descriptionOfficial Definition
A private non-profit organization that oversees the development of voluntary consensus standards for products, services, processes, systems, and personnel in the United States. Many ANSI standards are incorporated by reference into OSHA regulations, effectively making them mandatory in those contexts.

For HR and Safety Managers, knowing relevant ANSI standards is crucial because OSHA often adopts them. For example, ANSI Z87.1 specifies requirements for eye and face protection, and ANSI Z358.1 covers emergency eyewash and shower equipment. Adherence to these standards demonstrates a commitment to safety, helps ensure compliance, and can be a key factor in preventing workplace injuries.
