This is great that they are changing some of the rules regarding overhead lifting. Some of the reasoning that there has been less injures in the past few years could be due to a lot of things. Including that fact the there has been a lot less construction in the past few years due to the economy and the fact that people as doing a lot less large projects. When I think about OSHA and theater, a lot of people say that it does not matter. I think that OSHA should make some rules about theater because some of things that we do are dumb and we should be regulated on how to do it in a safer manner everyone with the same standards Theaters should have fail safe equipment.
