OSHA vs. ANSI

The main difference between OSHA regulations and ANSI standards is that OSHA regulations are part of the law and are mandatory. However, many OSHA regulations are based on ANSI standards, so there is some overlap.

OSHA can also adopt or incorporate an ANSI standard via "incorporation by reference." The incorporated standard becomes part of the OSHA regulation and is no longer voluntary.

OSHA requires that all eye and face PPE be designed and constructed in accordance with ANSI Z87.1-2003.
