Generally, a variance is an alternative procedure of compliance with some part of a safety and health standard granted by OSHA to an employer. For example, sometimes employers may not be able to comply fully and on time with a new safety or health standard because of a shortage of personnel, materials, or equipment. Or employers may prefer to use methods, equipment, or facilities that they believe protect workers as well as or better than OSHA standards. See Title 29 of the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), Part 1905, Rules of Practice standard for more information.
