“The Workplace Before OSHA"
14,000 workplace fatalities; 38 fatal workplace events daily
No ‘Right to Know’ the hazards of chemicals you work with
No personal protective equipment requirements
No machine guarding or lock-out/tag-out provisions
No confined space provisions No trenching or excavation rules
to protect from cave-in hazards

The Future
Dr. Michael’s Vision Stronger enforcement: Some employers need
incentives to do the right thing; many will never “self-police” and comply
Ensure that workers have a voice Refocus and strengthen compliance assistance
programs Change workplace culture: Employers must “find
and fix” workplace hazards

Results How will we measure success?
Reducing the number of fatalities associated with the four leading causes of workplace death:
Focus Four: falls, electrocutions, caught in or between, and struck-by
Increasing the number of targeted hazards abated: Targeted injuries and illnesses include: hearing loss in
manufacturing, illnesses in general industry and construction, and workplace amputations
Increase worker and employer awareness of OSHA rights, responsibilities and programs to improve the “voice in the workplace”:
Activities include: expanded outreach and education targeted to small business and vulnerable workers in high risk industries, achieving an increase in health and safety protections and a reduction of occupational injuries, illnesses and fatalities
