Description: |
This volume identifies major health and safety hazards and their effect on workers, and offers possible solutions. Also examines claims that how increased health and safety regulations are sometimes implemented at the expense of jobs. |
Synopsis: |
The US is losing manufacturing jobs at an unprecented rate and many companies claim that increased safety or environmental regulations would force them to eliminate still more jobs. This double bind - between job security and occupational safety - has resulted in frequent clashes between organized labour and the growing environmental movement.; This text seeks to find common ground between trade unionists, environmental and community activists, and scientific and medical researchers. It also identifies major health and safety hazards, describes their impact on workers and communities, and surveys a range of possible solutions. |
