The US Occupational Safety and Health Administration is responsible for providing basic safety standards for employers in the private sector. Their standards apply to most- but not all workers in the US. It does not cover workers regulated by other agencies- such as transportation, mining, etc. It does not apply to a family farm, a one man business, or workers outside the US. Certain government employees are also not covered.
