OSHA to Interior Workers: "Drop Dead" - Common Dreams (press release), ME The Occupational Safety and Health Administration has rejected a formal complaint by desperate U.S. Department of Interior workers seeking relief from acrid fumes, choking dust and nauseating odors produced by the massive modernization of the agency's Washington, D.C. headquarters building, according to documents released today by Public Employees for Environmental Responsibility (PEER). Civil servants and contract employees working in Interior Headquarters cite a rise in asthma attacks, crippling headaches, unexplained skin rashes and other maladies from a poorly contained reconstruction operation in the midst of a building housing an estimated 2,000 employees.
