Regulation and Inspection of Miscellaneous Commercial Sectors
The primary purpose of regulation is to prevent harm — either physical, pecuniary, or restrictive — to persons or entities. It follows that statistical data on harm, damage, or injury is necessary to amend, delete, or provide regulatory structure to an industry. Analysis and application of data provide justification for agencies and regulatory boards to exercise jurisdiction over private and public sectors in order to reduce such injuries.

The agency's regulations generally do not apply to miners, transportation workers, the self-employed, and some public employees.
Through its investigations and its enforcement of regulations and standards, and through its public outreach and training efforts, OSHA works to reduce workplace injuries and deaths. An estimated 6,000 Americans die each year from injuries sustained at their places of work. An additional 50,000 people die from illnesses brought on by chemical exposures in the workplace, and an estimated 6 million people suffer nonfatal workplace injuries — injuries that carry a $110 billion price tag annually.
OSHA strictly monitors: asbestos in the workplace, bloodborne...
