OSHA’s Woodworking Page

Safe woodworkingWhen it comes to places to find information to keep employees safe, there are few better resources than the the US Department of Labor’s Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA). There are resources for employees in many different industries at the OSHA website, including a page for woodworkers.

While much of the information provided is geared toward the industrial setting, home woodworkers can learn a lot about how to keep themselves safe while working in their shops.

This site is very complete, with the safety information broken into logical segments – from rough milling through assembly all the way to finishing.  Regardless which part of the project process you are in, there is something for everyone.
