Re: Safety Issue: Robots Moving in Pits

With the tight quarters, heavy, elevated robots and many years with flying objects, I think we need to have a full set of rules enforced. Everyone inside the pits should be wearing bump caps (hard hats would be acceptable), have shirts tucked in, no jewelry (rings or otherwise), and steel-toed shoes with met-guards. The pits are an incredibly unorganized multi--function-shop-workspace that would be completely unacceptable in a real-world enviornment to OSHA or any other regulatory body, and we're so lightly scratching the surface of real-world safety standards that UL Safety Award is a joke. I'm surprised they're willing to put their name on the award.
