In the United States, Federal OSHA does not cover government employees. They are specifically excluded under the OSHAct. Some Federal Government employees are covered by OSHA through a variety if interagency agreements that call for agencies to comply with OSHA standards, and sometimes to be inspected by OSHA, but do not generally allow for OSHA to cite or fine the agencies. The Postal Service is now covered by OSHA under a separate Act of Congress. State government employees in states that have Health and Safety programs approved by Federal OSHA are covered by their State OSHA program. There are about 23 such states. State government employees in the remaining states are not covered by Federal or State OSHA programs.
