OSHA Oregon State Plan offers a user-friendly application that enables a viewer to view all laws to which training responsibilities are subject for people who are subject to regulation. On the other hand, the U.S. OSHA provides a paper listing the specific safety regulations that call for training for those who fall under the Federal OSHA Authority.

The following workers in Oregon are still covered by federal OSHA jurisdiction:

• Government employment
• Facilities run by private contractors and the USPS that are involved in USPS mail operations, such as Shipyards/boatyards on or immediately near navigable waters, Marine Terminals, Marine Grain Terminal Operations, and Long Shoring (excluding production/manufacturing areas and their storage facilities) are all private sector employment on or adjacent to navigable waters of the United States, Commercial diving, construction from/on floating vessels, and all other workers whose work is done on or near navigable seas.
• Within the bounds of all Indian reservations, all private businesses job in the private sector near Crater Lake National Park at the Albany Research Center of the United States Department of Energy (ARC)
• The federal military reservations' workplaces
• Working conditions for flight attendants aboard operational airplanes
• Any risk, business, location, activity, or building over which the State Plan cannot exercise adequate jurisdiction

Moreover, OSHA Oregon Certifications include common responsibilities expected of industrial facilities. For example, OSHA Oregon advises OSHA 30-Hour courses for personnel with supervisory designations and OSHA 10-Hour courses for novice workers.
