The OSH Act applies to a private employer who has any employees doing work in a workplace in the United States. It requires these employers to provide employment and a place of employment that are free from recognized serious hazards and to comply with Occupational Safety and Health Act OSHA standards and regulations Sections 4 and 5 of the OSH Act . By regulation OSHA does not cover individuals who in their own residences employ persons for the purpose of performing domestic household tasks. OSHA has never conducted inspections of home offices and such an inspection would in fact be contrary to OSHA policy. OSHA will not hold employers liable for employees home offices and does not expect employers to inspect the home offices of their employees. If OSHA receives a complaint about a home office the complainant will be advised of OSHA policy. If an employee makes a specific request OSHA may informally let employers know of complaints about home office conditions but will not follow-up with the employer or employee. OSHA will however conduct inspections of other home-based worksites such as home manufacturing operations when OSHA receives a complaint or referral that indicates that a violation of a safety or health standard exists that threatens physical harm or that an imminent danger exists including reports of a work-related fatality. The scope of the inspection in an employee s home will be limited to the employee s work activities. Employers are responsible in home worksites for hazards caused by materials equipment or work processes which the employer provides or requires to be used in an employee s home.
