OSHA regulations

Job site rules

OSHA regulations are workplace safety and health standards issued by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration, a U.S. federal agency.

These rules govern everything from fall protection to chemical exposure limits to required safety training.

Employers must comply or face fines and citations: The inspector found multiple OSHA violations at the construction site.

Often shortened to just "OSHA": That's definitely not up to OSHA standards.
