No one wants to get rid of OSHA, we just want the agency to do its job, protect workers, help train and support business. I ask you great statesmen to lay down your party affiliations and work toward a common goal. Sometimes they are at a disadvantage by their own good deeds. The bad companies know OSHA is ineffective and because of the length of time it will take OSHA to inspect every work site or get around to inspecting them, the odds are on their side and even if caught, they know OSHA will not do much. OSHA's reactive enforcement methodology has not and is not working, letting OSHA continue in this manner and giving them more and more money each year and getting less and less each year is just crazy.
Someone has to take a stand and make some hard decisions for our very future.
I agree with Ron, and that is why I am here today with this amendment. My amendment is simple. The other half is directed toward OSHA enforcement. First, what is OSHA consultation. OSHA consultation is the effective alternative to OSHA enforcement.
