The enabling legislation for the Occupational Safety and Health Agency exclude large numbers of people from coverage.

First, it covers only employees of employers in the private sector of the economy. Self-employed people are not covered. Then it excludes the employees of the federal government and of state and subsidiary governments.

If a State chooses to operate a approved Safety and Health program on its own, approval is not given unless the program covers the employees of the state and of subsidiary governments.

It cannot cover employees of the United Nations or of foreign embassies because they are considered soverighn territory of another nation. It cannot cover US citizens employed in foreign countries by non-US companies, since those companies are not subject to US law.

That still leaves many people covered, but not everyone.
