> Unsafe Work Environment
Job safety and a safe work environment should be
integral in all work environments through out Oklahoma. Job
safety and health should be every employer’s first consideration.
A structurally safe work environment is not the only consideration
for an employer, for the employer is liable for all of the
actions of their employees. If you are injured due to the
negligence of another employee or the negligence of your employer
not providing a structurally safe work environment, you could
be entitled to compensation.
Oklahoma has standards to protect workers on the job. Employers
must follow safety standards relating to walking and working
surfaces, powered platforms, manlifts, vehicle-mounted work
platforms, occupational health, environmental control, hazardous
materials, personal protective equipment, machinery, machine
guarding, hand and portable power tools, welding, cutting
and brazing tools, electrical tolls and toxic and hazardous
substances.
