Space OSHA Violations

The number of 29 CGR 1910.28 citations I've written for starships & space stations is why I drink. (humor account not run by anyone affiliated with real OSHA)

It’s a thankless job, but someone has to do it.

@freshyill The Naboo government is not liable for accidents (including bifurcation and chasm plummeting) that may occur during unauthorized use of its power core.

@aquestingvole @Artemisapphire @TrekCore :screams into the void before prepping to write yet another strongly worded letter:

@Zethnar So if instead this is an improper use of this equipment, than that’s a violation of a different color.

Site: Death Star
Violation Type: Serious
SOSH ACT § (5)(a)(1): Electrically-powered blast doors don't have door stop sensors to initiate retraction/stop closure if doors begin closing on an employee, resulting in a struck-by hazard. #spaceOSHAviolation #StarWars

[Space OSHA Violations @Space_OSHA]

@Zethnar That’s not the function the doors were performing when the citation was issued. If the purpose of these doors is to protect from environmental hazards in an emergency, then they shouldn’t be manually activated for area access control.

@StarfleetTechS Oh... so that’s why my eye started spontaneously twitching.

#StarTrek Caption this!

[Space OSHA Violations @Space_OSHA]

@furrybananas So if these doors should only be closed to seal off an environmental hazard, and not for access control, then that’d be a violation related to improper use of equipment - or failure to train employees in its proper use.

[Space OSHA Violations @Space_OSHA]

@furrybananas If these doors are being used for purposes other than to protect from vacuum, like to cut off access of certain areas to intruders, they need to not be a risk to employees in the area or in pursuit.
