Sec. 323.7001  Policy.



    Various statutes and regulations (e.g. Walsh-Healy Act; Service 

Contract Act) require adherence to minimum safety and health standards 

by contractors engaged in potentially hazardous work. The guidance 

contained in FAR subpart 23.3 shall be used for hazardous materials as 

the primary reference. When the guidance is judged insufficient or does 

not meet the safety and health situation in the instant acquisition, 

this subpart shall be followed.
