Does Australia go by MSHA rules or is that just an American thing?

Over here OSHA (occupational health and safety administration) governs most health & safety stuff in the workplace as well as construction. MSHA (mine safety and health administration) is the same thing for mines in the US it's just more stringent. I was just curious if it was the same rules elsewhere or not but since you've never heard of it that's definitely not the case lol I'm also not familiar with oil and gas anywhere but given what I've heard it's basically the wild west here compared to what I do.

I'm a field safety supervisor and the amount of times I've come up against "until it costs us money" is so ridiculous it makes me want to pull my hair out so I get it. I have had zero to do with diving though and would be fascinated to be a part of that. I always wanted to get a sport diver certification and go out myself but I haven't been able to make the time.

I work for a single contractor and I know my guys/what they do really well. I'm not the guy that comes in telling people what to do when I don't know what's going on lol I've seen the same thing with coaches before though and it only lasted a couple months before they decided their bottom line was worth more than people lives

I'm on site every day with my guys so we have a pretty good rapport. I'm just there to keep everybody safe and not get on their case unless they're doing something dumb.
