Report: Bush Administration Dismantles Health and Safety Protections Occupational Hazards
Peter Infante, former director of OSHA's office of health standards, said that most OSHA employees with the qualifications to develop health standards had left the agency and have not been replaced, while the few who remain have been reassigned. As a result, the agency lacks the capacity to develop regulations, even if it wanted to.
"They're not interested in protecting workers, they're protecting industry, so that's why I left," said Infante, who quit the agency in 2000.------------------------------------------- posted 6:26 AM :: reference link ::
