Yes, OSHA requires that employers provide fire retardant clothing (FRC) to workers exposed to conditions where there is a risk of flash fire or electric arc flash, as outlined in standards such as 29 CFR 1910.132 and 29 CFR 1910.269. The clothing must be appropriate to the level of risk and maintained in good condition to ensure effectiveness.
