Izindawo zokusebenza zezimboni zilawulwa yimithetho ye-OSHA, kodwa lokhu akusho ukuthi imithetho ilandelwa njalo. Nakuba ukulimala kwenzeka ezindaweni zokukhiqiza ngezizathu ezahlukahlukene, kwemithetho eyi-10 ephezulu ye-OSHA evame ukunganakwa ezindaweni zezimboni, emibili ihilela ngqo ukwakhiwa komshini:ukukhiya/ukuphumaizinqubo (LO/TO) kanye nokuqapha komshini.

Ukukhiya/ukuthegaIzinqubo zenzelwe ukuvikela abasebenzi ekuqalisweni kwemishini okungalindelekile noma ukukhishwa kwamandla ayingozi ngesikhathi semisebenzi yesevisi noma yokulungisa.

Nokho, ngezizathu ezahlukahlukene, lezi zinqubo zivame ukweqiwa noma zifushaniswe, futhi lokhu kungabangela ukulimala noma ukufa.

Ngokusho kwe-OSHA, abasebenzi base-US abayizigidi ezintathu bahlinzeka ngemishini, futhi laba bantu babhekene nengozi enkulu yokulimala umaukukhiya/ukuphumaizinqubo azilandelwa kahle. I-ejensi kahulumeni ilinganisela ukuthi ukuhambisana nezindinganiso ze-LO/TO (njengoba kulawulwa yi-Standard 29 CFR 1910) kuvimbela ukufa okulinganiselwa ku-120 kanye nokulimala okungu-50,000 unyaka ngamunye. Ukuntuleka kokuthobela imithetho kuholela ngqo ekulahlekelweni kwemiphefumulo kanye nokulimala: Ucwaningo olulodwa olwenziwe yi-United Auto Workers (UAW) luthole ukuthi u-20% wokufa okwenzeka phakathi kwamalungu ayo phakathi kuka-1973 no-1995 (83 kwangu-414) kwabangelwa ngqo izinqubo ze-LO/TO ezinganele.
