A worker safety advocacy group is urging Americans to contact their U.S. senators and oppose the Congressional Review Act Resolution of Disapproval which would repeal an OSHA rule clarifying an employers' obligation to keep accurate records of work related injuries.
“This resolution gives license to employers to hide injuries, falsify injury records and violate the law without any sanctions,” said Charlene Obernauer, Executive Director of the New York Committee for Occupational Safety and Health (NYCOSH). “This resolution will reverse 45 years of worker protection and will undermine worker safety and health in the most dangerous industries.”
