You expect workers to pay for protection out of their own pockets? Against a risk their employer denies exists.

- tastyfreeze 1y agoMy family members that have worked oil fields were responsible for buying their own PPE even though it was regulation that required it.
- janice1999 1y agoSounds like the issue is lack of government inspections to enforce regulations.
- defrost 1y agoI'm sorry they had to go through that. Here in Australia, on mine sites, off shore oil rigs, construction, etc. employers are required to provide general safety conditions, adhere to safety regulations, and provide an allowance for personal protection equipment (gloves, goggles, boots, rugged shirts, trousers with day-glo, etc.)
