After nearly nineteen months in confirmation limbo, the man nominated by President Donald Trump to head up OSHA has withdrawn from the process. Scott Mugno, whose two-decades-long tenure at FedEx Ground and Express included six years as vice president of safety, sustainability, and vehicle maintenance, reportedly notified the White House and Labor Secretary Alexander Acosta this week that he was moving on to other pursuits.
Trump nominated Mugno to be the Department of Labor’s assistant secretary for occupational safety and health in 2017 and then re-nominated him in January 2019.
