How the OSH Act and OSHA can help us pave the way for psychologically safe workplaces
In 1970, Congress and President Nixon passed the OSH Act (Occupational Safety and Health) to make our workplaces free of physical hazards. Since then, despite a much larger workforce, injuries, illnesses, and deaths have dramatically decreased. In this episode, I talk about what OSHA oversees, how it enforces health and safety guidelines, and how it can inform our approach to making our workplaces psychologically safer.
