Back in college one of the workshops in Engineering had a sign on the door: "If you think Osha is a small town in Wisconsin, you're in trouble."
It's a wonder someone hasn't been hurt badly.
The article speaks to someone who was seriously injured by equipment they seemed to know was faulty.

That's a lawsuit.
Yes... but they don't pay very well, and that person was off work for a time while incurring medical bills. Can they afford the suit?
I don't know about the particular state laws there, but here in Oregon we have BOLI which will handle those complaints for you. Most states have something similar.Yes... but they don't pay very well, and that person was off work for a time while incurring medical bills. Can they afford the suit?
