摘要
Both employers and employees have responsibilities when it comes to safety, particularly electrical safety. It is the employer’s responsibility to provide a workplace that is free of hazards that could result in death or serious harm per Occupational Safety and Health Administration's (OSHA) General Duty Clause. It is the employee’s responsibility to follow and implement the safety protocols provided by the employers.
