boston children's hospital and the master's purpose department of public health found that to date the federal occupational safety and health administration has not issued any emergency or prominent standards specific to cope with 19 exposure at the workplace they have not issued any rulings as to how you're supposed to keep your workplace safe that's just the thing even worse as of august 13th 2020 osha has issued only 4 citations related to cope with 19 more over the total number of federal ocean spectrums of any kind during 2020 has been reduced by 2 thirds compared to the same period in prior years they're inspecting the less and they've only found 4 instances in the entire country of a workplace not taking covert seriously and putting their workers in danger absolutely and their initial. conversation about that was that they didn't want to expose their inspectors to. so you're not going in because you don't want to expose your own people meanwhile you are the organization that it's opposed to provide the check in the balance for these corporations for these entities that are doing things that they sho

fire that changed the course of the ilg, changed the course of labor legislation, particularly occupational health the united states. after years of bad news and declining union density, workers led by women often were walking up their jobs, teachers, flight attendants, speaking out about me too and others. so the questions we try to ask, how these actions shape the women's movement more broadly, i hope we can shed some light on that. you might expect a massive show in our gallery, if you know the history of the ilg. there are about 2500 linear feet of ilg records at cornell alone, so for a small shell we have a show we have a big topic. i wanted to start by asking our speakers to tell us who these women organizers were, how ethnic and racial backgrounds shaped their organizing, and also constrained it, and how they faced inequalities on the job and beyond. >> thank you for that introduction, and thank you to the gallery as always, for the wonderful programming that you do. let me start by telling a story. it is 1968, and yes, i am that old. [laughter] i had just completed my doctoral dissertation

occupational health and a requirements in the united states. talking about this in a larger sense because after years of bad news, and these were workers often led by women, teachers, nurses, flight attendants and we've seen some of those workers as well, particularly in the hotel industry, embrace these larger movement, speaking out about me too and others. so the questions were kind of asked in the show, how workers organize, connect for struggles, broader social movements and how they shape women's movements more broadly. shed some light on that tonight, hopefully. now, the last thing i'll say with an introduction like this, you might expect a massive show in the gallery. you might expect the same. i think there are about 1500 words of text and about 1500 linear feet at the cornell center alone. for a small show, we have a big topic and that's why we have this tonight. so i'd like to start asking our speakers to sort of give us a sense from their own work, first, really sort of who these women workers and organizers were in the periods they

thing people think of when they with think about workplace safety is osha you know the occupation safety and health administration their job is to enforce workplace safety you know workers can silently and honestly say hey look some of my job sites dangerous can you come in and spec but that's one of the major problems they're saying is the cause of this is that in the 1935 national labor relations act commonly referred to as the wegner act that actives like so old it now excludes farmers contractors good workers and other types of more precarious employees from any kind of labor rights labor protection rights here in this country but getting the ocean. researchers at harvard boston boston children's hospital and the master's purpose department of public to help from that to date the occupational safety and health administration has not issued any emergency or permanent standards specific to cope with 19 exposure at the workplace they have not received any rulings as to how you're supposed to keep your workplace safe that's just the thing even worse as of august 13th 2020 osha has issued only 4 cit

we created an osha, an occupational safety and health agency, for the protection of employees before the federal government had one in place. and to this day, not one of its decisions or rulings has ever been challenged. so, i think some of those charges are missing the point. i am suggesting that there are literally thousands of unnecessary regulations that invade every facet of business, and indeed, very much of our personal lives, that are unnecessary, that government can do without, that have added $130 billion to the cost of production in this country, and that are contributing their part to inflation. and i would like to see us a little more free, as we once were. mr. smith: president carter, another crack at that? mr. carter: sure. as a matter of fact, the air pollution standard laws that were passed in california were passed over the objections of governor reagan, and this is a very well-known fact. also, recently, when someone suggested that the occupational safety and health act should be abolished, governor reagan responded, amen. the offshore drilling rights is a question

who gave injured workers treatment that required amazon to record them for osha, the occupational safety and health administration. so amazon terminated its use of an occupational clinic and switched to another. >> it was more or less understood that if-- if too many of these injuries were being recordable, that it would put the contract with that company at risk. >> reporter: this medical provider, who asked to remain anonymous for fear of retaliation, used to work for colorado-based advanced urgent care and occupational medicine, the clinic amazon switched to in april of 2019. amazon's own injury numbers show that once the company changed clinics, injury rates athe warehouse went down. your company, you had a bunch of different clients, but amazon was different. >> amazon felt different. you know, when an amazon patient would come in, i would feel, maybe a little more anxious about what sort of care i would want t provide, but maybe would think twice about providing. i began to feel more pressure from my supervisors to try to make these claims not recordable. >> reporter: so that means changing h

your osha team, occupational safety and health administration, has put out covid safety guidelines but it doesn't appear that there are specific and harsh legal penalties for employers who don't follow them. your team told us that there are 10,810 covid-related complaints to osha. we asked how many citations have been issued. they did not get back to us. so we had to rely on afl-cio numbers and they say only -- [ speaking simultaneously ] >> tell me what they told you. liz: well, first of all, we put in calls to them as well. 96 class actions. we understand, though, that when we're looking at specific citations, we need to know, at least employees need to know if they do go back, and i presume most of them do want to, mr. secretary, that they are going to have employers, most of them are caring about their employees, but that all employers will be held to a standard and it appears your guidelines don't have teeth. what are you going to do about that? >> well, our programs do have teeth, liz. it's funny, again, by saying you imagined our priority was to get people back to work, i almost

he has an occupational safety and health administration, craig that has been awol in this pandemic.ety standard. he even orders us back to work even out ppe in some instances. it's the exact opposite approach we should be taking. >> what are two or three things specifically that this administration could do right now to get people back to work in the midst of a pandemic? one, they could issue a national pandemic standard so employers would know what they have to do to keep workers safe. two, they could make sure workers on the job, essential workers that, in essence, have become expendable workers in this administration, that they have the proper ppe that they can do. and make sure the occupational safety administration has the resources to be able to inspect employers and make sure they comply with the standards. osha right now has the fewest number of inspectors it's had in its entire history. it's a cadaver of what it used to be and what it needs to be. >> nbc news reported last week, richard, you called for an emergency meeting of union heads to come up with a contingency plan t

quayle, in recent years the reagan administration has scaled back the activities of the occupational safety and health administration, prompted in part by vice president bush's tax force on regulatory relief. the budget for the agency has been cut by 20% and the number of inspection at manufacturing plants has been reduced by 33%. this has had a special effect in this area where many people work in the meat packing industry which has a far higher rate of serious injuries than almost any other injury, a rate which appears to have been rising, although we're not really sure. some of the largest companies have allegedly been falsifying the reports. would you acknowledge to the hundreds of injured and maimed people in nebraska and elsewhere in the midwest that in this case deregulation may have gone too far and the government should reassert itself in protecting workers' rights? >> the premise of your question, john, is that somehow this administration has been lax in enforcement of osha regulations. i disagree with that. i'll tell you why. if you want to ask some business people that i talk to periodical

when someone suggested that the occupational safety the -- safety and health, the president responded amen. the offshore drilling rights is a question that governor reagan raises often. in the proposal for the alaska lands legislation, 100% of all the offshore lands would be off -- would be open for exploration. we have, with our five-year plan for the leasing of offshore lands, proposed more land to be drilled that has been opened up for drilling since this program started in 1954. so we are not adding restraints on american exploration, we are encouraging it in any way we can. >> governor reagan, you have the last word. fmr. governor reagan: it is a well-known fact i opposed air pollution laws in california. the president must be suggesting a law the federal government tried to impose on the state of california, not a law, regulations, that would have made it impossible to drive an automobile within the limits of any california city or have a place to put it, if you did drive it, against their regulations. it would have destroyed the economy of california. . we had the support of co

the legislation directs the occupational safety and health administration to issue enforceable federal workplace standards to protect all workers from contracting covid 189. in spite of all the problems of the meatpacking industries, prisons, nursing homes and health care there is nor standard to protect workers from covid-19. . . . this also puts the medical and family leave back by expanding access to fmla protections passed in previous relief bills. legislation also provides access to health care by creating a broad open enrollment period so individuals and families can obtain coverage through the affordable care act marketplaces and offers enhanced subsidies for many workers who have lost their jobs. regrettably, mr. chairman, in america most workers who lows their jobs also lose health insurance. this is a safety net to help them maintain their health insurance coverage. finally the legislation provides robust investments in some of our vital community programs such as the low income home energy assistance program, better known as liheap, and the older americans act programs like
