The Occupational Safety and Health Administration cautions employers involved in the handling of fireworks/pyrotechnics to take appropriate measures to protect workers making, selling, displaying, or otherwise handling dangerous pyrotechnic materials.

OSHA offers a webpage specifically addressing two sectors in the pyrotechnics industry: retail sales of fireworks and fireworks display, including descriptions of common hazards and solutions found in both areas of the industry, downloadable safety posters for workplaces where fireworks are handled, and a video demonstrating best industry practices for retail sales and manufacturers based on National Fire Protection Association consensus standards.
