Written Safety Plan that references TDA pesticide licensing and chainsaw chaps. HazCom for herbicides and fertilizers. Bilingual New Employee Orientation. Heat Illness Prevention Plan built for outdoor crews. JHA Pack with 6 lawn and landscape task examples. All 5 documents. One industry. Ready in 1–3 business days.
Every document in the Complete Safety System is written specifically for lawn care and landscape operations. Not adapted. Not borrowed. Built from the ground up.
Generic national templates reference "check your state" for Texas requirements. ReadyDocs Safe references these agencies by name — because that's what your Texas inspector will expect.
Texas requires commercial pesticide applicators to hold a TDA Pesticide Applicator License. Your Written Safety Plan references this requirement directly under Chapter 76 of the Texas Agriculture Code. No generic national template includes this — because they don't know Texas.
Chainsaw operations and tree removal fall under 1910.266. Your WSP includes the chainsaw chaps requirement, kickback zone protocol, and PPE requirements (hard hat, eye protection, cut-resistant chaps) for chainsaw work. OSHA cites this regularly in landscape fatality investigations.
Texas requires employers to report work-related injuries to their workers' comp carrier within 8 days using DWC Form-001. This is different from OSHA's reporting timeline. Your WSP and Orientation reference this Texas-specific requirement explicitly.
OSHA Region 6 (Dallas) is actively inspecting high-risk worksites on NWS heat advisory days — including lawn and landscape operations. Your Heat Illness Prevention Plan covers the 91°F and 103°F heat index action thresholds, 8-oz/20-minute water rule, and acclimatization schedule required by OSHA's heat NEP guidance.
OSHCON is TDI's free on-site consultation program for Texas employers. When an OSHCON consultant visits your worksite, having a Written Safety Plan and HazCom Program dramatically improves the outcome. ReadyDocs Safe documents are designed to pass OSHCON review.
Herbicides, pesticides, fertilizers, and fuel all fall under HazCom. Your HazCom Program includes a chemical inventory table, SDS management procedures, and GHS labeling requirements specific to the chemicals most commonly used in lawn and landscape operations.
These are actual content sections from your Lawn & Landscape Written Safety Plan and New Employee Orientation — written for your specific operations, not adapted from a generic program.
Your WSP includes a dedicated section requiring that any employee applying commercial pesticides must hold a current TDA Pesticide Applicator License (or work under direct supervision of a licensed applicator as permitted by Texas Agriculture Code Ch. 76). The section references the renewal requirement, record-keeping obligation, and restricted-use pesticide protocol.
Based on 29 CFR 1910.266, your WSP includes the kickback zone requirement (2× tree height), required PPE (Class E hard hat, safety glasses, cut-resistant chaps rated to ASTM F1818 or ANSI Z133), chainsaw inspection procedure before each use, and the buddy system requirement for chainsaw operations. OSHA cites missing chainsaw protocols in the majority of landscape-related fatality investigations.
Your New Employee Safety Orientation includes a bilingual English/Spanish quick reference card — the only document type in the ReadyDocs Safe library with this feature, because lawn and landscape operations have a higher percentage of Spanish-speaking employees than any other industry we serve. The card covers main hazards, emergency procedures, and OSHA worker rights in both languages.
Both options include industry-specific, Texas-specific documents. The Complete Safety System is the right choice for most operations — it includes all five documents and covers every common OSHA inspection scenario.
The three foundational documents. ISNetworld RAVS ready. Covers most common OSHA requirements for small lawn care operations.
All 5 documents. Everything you need for an OSHA inspection, a workers comp audit, or an OSHCON consultation.
