30 Times People Violated OSHA Regulations But Were Totally Okay With That

Manda Garcia

Safety first! Of course, your safety must be made a paramount priority before anything else at any time and in any situation. Everywhere you go, from home to school, workplace, hospitals, Entertainment centers, etc., safety regulations must be strictly followed in order to keep yourself and others from being exposed to dangers and risks. However, there are times when people do things their way and don't give a heck about what is called OSHA Safety Regulations (the Occupational Safety and Health Administration). Luckily, we’ve come across a Facebook group known as “Looks like an OSHA violation but ok”, a corner for everyone to “share images and stories of the most egregious OSHA violations, and other maybe-not-the-best-idea situations”. This community was created with a mission to hilariously educate people about staying safe at work.
We’ve rounded up 30 dangerous yet funny times when OSHA Safety Regulations made no sense to people. Check them out below!
