When a generic safety manual is enough
- You only need a basic internal starter document.
- You have a safety professional who can edit and validate the manual.
- Your GC or insurer is not asking for state-specific or trade-specific written programs.
When a customized program is safer
- You are submitting documents to a GC, insurer, ISNetworld, Avetta, Veriforce, or similar platform.
- You operate in a state-plan state with requirements beyond federal OSHA.
- Your trade has high-risk hazards such as roofing fall protection, electrical LOTO, silica, heat illness, or respiratory protection.
What CrewCompliance provides
- A contractor-ready written program built from your answers.
- Trade-specific sections instead of irrelevant filler.
- State-aware language and citations where applicable.
- Professional PDF output for jobsite binders and document requests.

No. CrewCompliance provides safety-document generation support, not legal advice. Contractors should review outputs for their specific operations and reviewer requirements.
Generate a state + trade-specific program
CrewCompliance is designed for contractors who need practical written safety documentation quickly. It is not a law firm and does not replace professional legal or safety review for unusual operations, but it gives you a stronger starting point than a generic manual.
