I'm googling OSHA and it seems to be some American thing, not a global rule?
Don't other countries have their own Oshas just called Something else?
If you are talking globally then using a country specific name for it seems confusing
But just because you are talking on a global forum doesn't mean you can't talk about your personal experience
You were talking to someone else though, not just saying how it is for you
What do you mean? We're just describing what we see in the picture and how it compares to our lived experience.
Does your country have an osha or can people go to construction sites without hardhats, or do you have a regulating body but hardhats aren't required / the rules aren't enforced?
Saying OSHA is like saying Kleenex to us, we don't even realize it is a brand name. It has become the generic term in our en_us language anyway.
You were saying "I hope you realize that OSHA requires it" or whatever and that's kinda hostile and weird since you don't even know if they are American/have OSHA so what relevance does your stuff have to them
My tenuous guess, Scandi/Germanic... But that's just her in the cab.
I don't know the machinery well enough to hazard a guess.
But even if still there, then yeah, there'd for sure be safety regs insisting on hard hats all the time on site.
Then it's better to say that than try to be snarky about OSHA
I enjoyed their pedantry.
Always good to remind Americans the rest of the world exists. ;-)
