Not so fun fact: depending on the state you live in, you may not be able to sue your employer if you are injured due to their negligence. If you work in an unsafe place you should document and report what you see to the relevant authorities and then find a new job

If the current dystopian US government abolishes OSHA, the LiveLeak logo might appear over American workers and not only Chinese workers like in the 2000s.
USCSB is a great channel btw.
10 years an electrician. I have never seen OSHA. The only time I've heard of OSHA showing up anywhere, the person that called got in trouble.
owning the libs 💪
oh shit i slipped falls 100 metres on asphalt
Above is a link to the US chemical safety board, they investigate the worst chemical related incidents across the nation. In the chemical industry it is understood that these facilities are bombs. Bombs containing bio-weapons. OSHA is the only thing standing between lit fuses ready to kill hundreds and poison thousands.
Anyone going after OSHA is a straight pycho.
Edit: It should be noted, that despite their mandate, right now, they are barely a speed bump on the road to complete systems failures in facilities across the nation. Earlier this year a plant making food coloring in Kentucky, somthing that goes unregulated by PSM, exploded in a residential area. Killing workers and traumatizing the community. If anything OSHA needs bolstering not abandonment.
The private sector will not do this work. After watching companies ignore saftey concerns year after year, ultimately leading to disaster, it is now recommended a safety specialist be on the board of all PSM regulated companies.
It kills me that the CSB has little (no?) authority to enforce their findings. All they can do is make recommendations.
Lol OSHA is kinda corrupt but if they can keep asshole owners in line with threats then I'll take it.
OSHA did 911.
Think about it. We know that the buildings were destroyed in a controlled demo. The whole point of a controlled demo is safety. What kind of a diabolical organization would murder 3,000 people using the best safety practices???!!!
