Abstract

It is hypothesized that even though governmental rules, regulations, and policies along with ethical. social, and moral dictates within our communities now require, even demand, that businesses and industry provide their employees a healthful and safe working environment the opposite is often the case. There is a substantial number of employers, within the small to medium sized industrial manufacturers, whose chief executive officers: (1) fail to implement a safety program within their organization; (2) fail to provide more than token attention to employee safety and the intent of the OSHA regulations; (3) have no sincerity or intention to complying with OSHA laws now or in the future; (4) and appear willing to accept the risk of punishment for failure to comply with all or part of the Occupational Safety and Health Act.
