• Persons who are self-employed
• Family farms that employ only immediate family members
• Federal agencies covered by other federal statues (in cases where these other federal statues do not cover working conditions in a specific area or areas, OSHA standards apply)
• State and local governments (except to gain OSHA's approval of a state-level safety and health plan, states must provide a program for state and local government)
• Coal miners (coal mines are regulated by mining-specific laws)
