Most early job-safety legislation was implemented at the state level. The federal government did not pass its first workplace safety law until the Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSHA) in 1970. Some states, however, had already implemented their own workplace safety laws prior to OSHA. The legislation at the county level was limited and focused on specific industries or hazards, but the state level regulations applied to all industries and types of work. Some early job-safety legislation in the late 19th and early 20th centuries did target child labor, but this was not the primary focus of job-safety laws at the time.
