OSHA Leadership – Last Year
• May 2015
• “We think we're only
getting a very small
portion of the accidents
that should be reported,”
said Dr. David Michaels,
the U.S. Assistant
Secretary of Labor for

“When we investigate, we see that most employers don’t treat temporary
workers the way they treat their permanent employees — they don’t
provide them with the training that is necessary.”
