The new Plain Language poster (OSHA 3165) replaces OSHA's currently required workplace poster (OSHA 2203). As supplies of OSHA 2203 diminish, the new workplace poster will be phased in to take its place.

Employers do not need to replace current 2203 posters. The OSHA 2203 poster will continue to be in compliance with OSHA regulations. 

INSTRUCTIONS 

All covered employers are required to display and keep displayed, a poster prepared by the Department of Labor* informing employees of the protections of the Occupational Safety and Health Act and its amendments. (* Federal Government Agencies must use the Federal Agency Poster.) 

The poster must be displayed in a conspicuous place where employees and applicants for employment can see it. 

Title 29 Code of Federal Regulations, 1903.2(a)(3) states that reproductions or
facsimiles of the poster shall be at least 8 1/2 by 14 inches with 10 point type.
