Maine: Federal OSHA for private employers, MDOL for public

Maine is one of six OSHA-approved state plans where the state plan covers state and municipal employees only. Private-sector Maine employers are under Federal OSHA — SafeGora routes private workspaces to the federal recordkeeping module while preserving ME physical-state context. MDOL (the Maine Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Standards) handles public-sector enforcement under MRS Title 26 §§42-A et seq.; SafeGora's public-sector substrate for Maine is on the roadmap but not in this launch. Maine Workers' Compensation is governed by the Maine WC Board under MRS Title 39-A.

How SafeGora handles Maine

  1. Where records route

    Routes to Federal OSHA while preserving the physical state.

  2. What the AI draws on

    AI and written-program retrieval use federal source material for this state. Chat answers use the workspace's headquarters jurisdiction, not each work site. State-specific depth varies; federal citations are the fallback.

  3. Workspace setup

    You can choose Maine when you create a workspace.
