I am the Head Lifeguard at the YMCA of Dixon in Dixon, IL and we always have one lifeguard for every twenty-five persons.
by the pool
Yes Lifeguards are required, it is suggested that there is one lifeguard for every 25 people.
So that they can see out far into the ocean. And in a pool- so that the glare of sunlight or lighting is reduced on the surface which enables lifeguards to see to he bottom of the pool. The standard height is 2 metres of the ground.
freeze the water and go ice skating. ask anyone at the pool when the lifeguard will be on duty. dont swim. swim with caution.
And the answer is well in the U.K you see lifeguards with the nplq qualification at a swimming pool or leisure centre with water facilities and you also see beach lifeguards at the beach who protect bathers from injury and or death at the coast.
All pools are required to have a minimum number of lifeguards on duty, to check whether anyone is in trouble and help out if so. Recommendations on where to swim in the pool (or which pool - like sticking to the shallow end for younger or less experienced swimmers) are also often posted, and most have warning signs telling people not to run, not to dive onto others, etc.
In most if not all public pools the people that keep the kids safe in the pool are the lifeguards. They monitor all the swimmers and minimize horse play and dangerous activity. Parents should also help safe guard the swimmers in training them how to have pool safety.

OSHA would apply to those who build the pool and those employed by the pool (such as lifeguards), but if this is a personal pool, then OSHA really has no application because it is nobody's work place.
No sand getting in your shorts, seaweed, jellyfish, sharp rocks on the ground. Plus, there are lifeguards and changing rooms.
