This requires a simple engineering solution, NOT a bunch ignorant regulations.

At what point does the professionl facility decide to implement that simple solution since they probably haven't already?

Merely saying "be careful up there" I spent almost 35 years in a Detroit stamping plant and have seen the results of awful industrial accidents in the press shop. Before OSHA came along, there was nothing to force companies to examine their processes and devise ways to make the work environment safer.

In the end, we had a trained HAZMAT team, a rapid response team, closed space training, and lockout training. All new employees were put thru a day of orientation and safety training.

Did all our OSHA programs eliminate accidents completely? Of course not but the industry was much safer to work in as a result of it.....

Yes, and after the meaningful changes were implemented, the plant safety crews continued to grow, which required they start inventing problems to solve.
