The Story of OSHA

The Story of OSHA (1980)

This film tells workers how OSHA was set up to stem the tide of disease, injury, and death, and what their rights are under the law. Explains how NIOSH conducts tests, how standards are set, and how OSHA investigates complaints. Produced and distributed by OSHA in 1980. Then in 1981, the incoming head of OSHA Thorne Auchter recalled and destroyed most copies. A few copies were kept alive by renegade union officials who refused to return their copies. The penalty for being discovered in possession of one of these films was loosing all OSHA funding for their safety and health programs.

This film was preserved through the years through the efforts of Mark Catlin, who made this and other censored OSHA films available for digitizing.

@spazmoso Oh shut the fuck up dipshit. You are either a punk ass bitch that licks the asshole of the boss or the owner of a shit company that doesn't want to keep your employees safe. I know your kind. What ever kind you are. You are a loser. I've worked on some shitty jobs and I've seen OSHA make those jobs safe without being fuckers or fining companies. When they do fine companies it's because they know that company doesn't care about its workers.

@mirk1500 Well, It is also true that OSHA ONLY goes to a construction site AFTER an accident. OSHA has become a bully. Why not before? Yeah its true the accident has not occurred yet but still.
