I've always wondered about that too, especially after seeing how many people are involved in making the races happen. If a man works at the Isle of Man TT, there are actually a lot of safety laws made by the Isle of Man government that are supposed to protect him, just like other workers. From what I've heard, they have strict health and safety requirements, and stuff like helmets, protective gear, and training is pretty much a must. The government checks the event every year to make sure everyone follows the rules.

But honestly, even with all the laws, working at an event like the TT is always going to have risks. My uncle worked one year and said they had safety briefings every day, and there were always medics around, but he still felt a bit nervous because bikes go crazy fast. The law can help make things safer, but it can't get rid of every danger, especially at a race like this. Still, I think the government doing inspections and having rules makes it way less sketchy for everyone working there.
