I don't believe OSHA requirements cover homeowners at all.

When the homeowner is paid, in some form or another, by the show, with
the knowledge that they will be doing some of the construction, they
become employees of the show.

Spinning it any other way, in an attempt to avoid responsibility and
legal action, is about as effective as having a third party accept the
money for OJ. It's simply evasive. A pattern of evasion could be
considered racketeering and fall under the RICO act.
