Discuss whether the OSH Act led to aggressive enforcement by OSHA using corporate criminal liability as a tool against employers who endangered their employee.
What will be an ideal response?
Few employers in the United States have faced criminal liability for even the most egregious workplaces deaths and injuries. Since the OSH Act was passed in 1970, there have been more than 390,000 workplace fatalities but less than 100 criminal prosecutions. In 2015, the Department of Labor and Department of Justice made a concerted effort to pursue more criminal cases against employers.
