I never realized until now that workplace injuries cost as much as $232 billion a year, according to Liberty Mutual.

Enforcement and inspection actions with potential increased fines is a very volatile subject during these very rocky economic times. Especially with the multitude of plants shutting down across the nations heartland.

I lost track on the Google map a four months ago www.is.gd/6sqR of plant shutdowns.

Just my two cents, but before extensive resources are alloted in health and safety issues, there must be some sort of concerted effort in abating the manufacturing base that is slowing diminishing to an eventual service based economy.

Until then. The last plant leaving the USA. Please don't forget to turn out the lights.
