OSHA requirements

[??????????]

As an engineer I've spent quite a bit of time in factories. Most of them today are pretty good for safety but in some cases there are problems which could be easily corrected.

Also I have friends and relatives who lost fingers in factory accidents. My best friend from high school lost his little finger. My wife's father lost part of his thumb and his father lost a finger, all in factory accidents. I think these things could and should be prevented. So in general I support workplace safety rules, but they should not be allowed to get out of control either.

Many accidents are caused by the negligance of those who were hurt. Now I'm not saying that was the case for the people you know. But OSHA isn't going to stop every accident as I'm sure you realize.

It is ridiculous to blame the worker for his own 'negligence', StatesRights, as he is doing the job asked of him by the employer.  If he does it improperly, it could be the result of poor training, and certainly is the result of improper management.  He wouldn't even be in the hazardous situation if not for the demands of the employer.

LOL! That's the dumbest argument I've ever heard.

Next you'll be telling me if someone runs a stop sign and plows into another car it really wasn't their fault because driving school didn't teach them properly! What a effin joke you are.
