ASTM Industrial Safety Standards

International Industrial Safety & Hygiene Standards

ASTM industrial safety standards enable professionals to recognize, assess, and control physical, chemical, and environmental hazards—ensuring safer environments, regulatory alignment, and operational excellence. In industries where worker safety is mission-critical, ASTM industrial safety and hygiene standards offer a unified, proven foundation for risk mitigation.

With standards for protective equipment, exposure monitoring, ergonomic design, and more—combined with digital access via Compass and recognition across accreditation and regulatory regimes—these standards equip organizations to create safer, healthier, and more reliable workplaces.

For safety engineers, occupational hygienists, and facility managers, embracing ASTM safety standards is more than compliance—it’s a commitment to safety culture and risk resilience.
