Employee Rights
According to federal law, employees are entitled to a safe workplace that is free of known safety and health hazards. Employers must ensure that employees' rights are protected. In order to do so, employers must be aware of specific employee rights.
An employer must ensure an employee's rights to the following:
- Be trained in a language they understand
- Work on machines that are safe
- Be provided required safety gear, such as gloves or a harness and lifeline for falls
- Be protected from toxic chemicals
- Request an OSHA inspection
