Expands Occupational Safety and Health Act coverage to include public employees.

The Public Service Worker Protection Act amends the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970 to include public employees in its coverage. This change applies to federal, state, and local government workplaces. The amendment takes effect 90 days after enactment for most workplaces, but states and political subdivisions without an approved state plan will have 36 months to comply.
