Ryan Schumacher

The Occupational Saftey and Health Act was introduced by congress in 1970 and it was signed by president Richard Nixon. What the law did was for bosses to keep the hired work in safe working conditions. Such as keeping them away from hazards and poisons, loud noises that could effect hearing, and other dangerous areas of the work area. Some other intersting facts about the bill is that it coverd most private workpaces.
