All across America, in every state, across industries and
occupations, workers are being injured, or killed on the job, or
exposed to toxic chemicals from which they are dying.
What has happened to our nation that has allowed corporations
and insurers to throw away the lives, the health of so many without
caring, without fear of exposure, without being held accountable?
It's called Workers' Compensation: the system we thought was there
to protect us if we were injured on the job.
The title refers to a workers' compensation system in which
worker deaths often cost an employer far less than correcting a
safety/health hazard in the workplace; and a system in which the
employer is virtually immune from prosecution for the depraved
indifference that results in severe injury, toxic exposure, or
death.
"Depraved Indifference" represents over five years of research
and interviews. The last chapter explores where we can go from here
to create a system of fairness and justice, a system that works;
that puts the responsibility and accountability on the employer to
make the workplace safe for workers.
