All MIOSHA standards — including administrative, agriculture operations, construction safety and health, and, general industry safety and health — are administrative rules. An administrative rule is a written regulation that has the effect of law.
MIOSHA promulgates administrative rules under the authority of the Michigan Administrative Procedures Act. The administrative rules printed in the Michigan Administrative Code is the true and correct copy of all MIOSHA promulgated rules. The Office of Regulatory Reinvention provides the Michigan administrative code version of all MIOSHA standards in electronic form free of charge on the website.
Under EO 2019-13 MIOSHA moved to LEO in 2019. Prior to 2019 MIOSHA was housed within the Michigan Department of Licensing and Regulatory Affairs (LARA)
