The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) is not
close to meeting its mandate to protect American workers, according
to administrative law specialists McGarity and Shapiro. Thousands
of men and women are still victims of workplace accidents and
occupational disease. The goal of this book is to analyze why OSHA
has failed and to suggest what can be done to set it back on track.
The book, divided into six parts, evaluates the current status of
the protection of workers and provides a history of OSHA
regulation. The authors suggest four methods to reduce workplace
health and safety risks: (1) better management of OSHA; (2) reduced
oversight by the courts and the executive branch; (3) a change in
OSHA's legislative mandate; and (4) empowering workers to protect
themselves.
This important work will be of interest to scholars and
professionals in occupational health, labor economics, labor law,
and human resource management.
