Default Re: Crew in our theatre can do

Is there anywhere in the US where OSHA says you can't do any of these things? At least the top three I don't think require any formal certs. I am not sure about working on the grid. Most of the grids I have worked on you would have to be about 3" thin to go through the channel irons. As for loading in lighting alone, does that mean that a DJ can't load in his own gear alone for a gig down there? He has to have help? But really, you shouldn't talk about having crew standing around, because Local 1 may be going on strike because the producers want to change the number of people who get paid to stand around.
