50 Times People Didn’t Give A Heck About OSHA Safety Regulations And Did What They Had To Do, As Shared On This Facebook Group
If you’re not new to Bored Panda, you probably know what big fans we all are here of OSHA (the Occupational Safety and Health Administration)-related content.
Numerous times we've covered the legendary subreddit OSHA which has set out on a mission to educate people about staying safe at work by showing what incidents lurk around the corner. Check it out here, here and here!
Now, this entertaining Facebook group titled “Looks Like An OSHA Violation But Ok” is a great addition to the educational efforts to remind people that staying safe at work should be the utmost priority!
Home to 492.1K members, the group describes itself as “a place to share images and stories of the most egregious OSHA violations, and other maybe-not-the-best-idea situations.” Scroll down through the batch of examples below!

I think I read somewhere that this is a type of "hazing" to new guys- tbh I'm more concerned that he's that close to it without protective eyewear.

To be fair about it, there are 194 countries where OSHA does not have jurisdiction.

If you've ever worked with people like this, you know how stubborn they are, and if they're the one in charge, or they're a favorite of the boss, all you can really do is document and quietly make phone calls. There's often a culture of safety avoidance in jobs with long time employees who become complacent. Shortcuts and cost-saving can get out of hand, and as a new employee, you can feel pressured to comply. This kinda s**t has to change.

This is so true. So many people would rather risk losing a limb or their life than follow safety precautions.
