What agency is responsible for enforcing safety codes and standards for the US?
There is no single agency responsible for enforcing safety codes and standards for the US. In the workplace in about half the states the Federal Occupational Safety and Health Administration enforces its regulations on private employers, but not on public agencies. In the other half of the states, each state has an agency that performs this function and also enforces health and safety standards on public agencies. Some federal government agencies are responsible for their own enforcement, and others are subject to Federal OSHA to one degree or another. In cities, counties and states, the fire departments and building departments enforce safety codes related to fire safety and escape and building safety. There are also nongovernmental agencies such as insurance companies, that have their own safety codes and enforce them among their members or clients.
