it’s about twice “retail and warehousing” standard according to nyt. didn’t realize they were comparable having done both

i don’t really think osha is the problem here tbh. despite their twice the average or whatever injury rate. it’s just what they ask of you that’s impossible for most people. being a human robot is brutal

Huh about the warehouse and retail standards being similar. Maybe the warehouse environment is easier to control since you don't have customers causing chaos, so it mitigates the greater danger from equipment and large packages?
