So before I started my business I worked for my old boss for 10 years. He would always talk about being careful about stuff “because OSHA could show up” like they were some type of boogeyman. In those 10 years I never once saw anyone from any type of regulatory body.
So was my boss just being paranoid? What are the odds someone from OSHA actually would be around? have you ever dealt with them?
I worked for a high rise window installer. One day OSHA caught a worker on the boom lift with no harness.
The fine was $5K.
OSHA is no joke
