The report, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bluegreenalliance.org\/workersafety\"><strong><em>Then and Now: Worker Safety Under Trump and Biden<\/em><\/strong><\/a>, considers administrative actions in several areas: capacity at the U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA); protecting miners from black lung-causing silica dust; regulation of hazardous chemical facilities; worker injury reporting requirements; and COVID-19 response.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWorkers\u2019 Memorial Day honors the workers who didn\u2019t come home at the end of their shift,\u201d said\u00a0<strong>BlueGreen Alliance Executive Director Jason Walsh<\/strong>. \u201cIt\u2019s also the day we can commit ourselves to a future where every worker is able to say goodbye to their families before their shift with the safe assumption that they will be returning home healthy at the end of the day.
