MikeDunnAuthorToday in Labor History December 29, 1970: President Nixon signed the Occupational Safety and Health Act into law. Ever since, successive administrations have whittled away at the efficacy of this agency, which was designed to protect workers. Nevertheless, a study in 2012, published in the journal “Science,” found a 9.4% reduction in workplace injuries and a 26% reduction in the cost of workplace injuries since 1970. They also found that these reductions came at no additional cost to business or consumers. A 2020 study by the “American Economic Review” found that President Obama’s press releases that named and shamed companies that were violating OSHA had the same effect on improving compliance by other companies as having 210 inspections.

Not a doctor. Or Jesus.Hi @Reese
Top Three Ways You Can #SupportMe:
1) Don't spread #Misinformation or #Fascist #Memes or #TalkingPoints even if you're mocking them.
2) Don't buy from #Amazon because their #WarehouseWorkers suffer more than double the rate of #WorkplaceAccidents and #WorkplaceInjuries of comperable workers elsewhere
3) Instead of giving money to the #SalvationArmy, give it to actual people in need. SA is a #Church and they refuse to #LGBTQ and other folx they disapprove of.
