The 1970 OSHA Act authorizes the agency In order to carry out the purposes of this Act, the Secretary, upon presenting appropriate credentials to the owner, operator, or agent in charge, is authorized to enter without delay and at reasonable times any factory, plant, establishment, construction site, or other area, workplace or environment where work is performed by an employee of an employer; and to inspect and investigate during regular working hours and at other reasonable times, and within reasonable limits and in a reasonable manner, any such place of employment and all pertinent conditions, structures, machines, apparatus, devices, equipment, and materials therein, and to question privately any such employer, owner, operator, agent or employee. Because OSHA cannot inspect all 7 million workplaces it covers each year, the agency seeks to focus its inspection resources on the most hazardous workplaces.

This clip is from the 1994 Occupational Health and Safety Administration (OSHA) video, Protecting workers: How OSHA conducts inspections. The entire video is available on the Internet Archives.
