"In early October, TOSHA and the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation revealed they were investigating the circumstances that led to the deaths of the employees. Some people who were working at Impact Plastics on Sept. 27 told News Channel 11 they were forced to stay at the facility for too long.

TOSHA released a summary of its investigation into Impact Plastics on Wednesday, which concluded with no citations recommended and a declaration that the deaths that occurred were not work-related."

Update. @juddlegum and #RebeccaCrosby provide more evidence that the #Trump team is taking down valuable govt pages — this time #OSHA pages on workplace safety — that use #DEI language in ways that have nothing to do with the kind of DEI Trumpists oppose.
popular.info/p/in-botched-dei-

For example, they're taking down pages that refer to "diversity of state-specific…regulatory requirements" and "diverse conditions under which EMS responders could work."

PS: It's no accident that this might remind you of the brainless firing of US nuclear security staffers, which Trumpists are still trying to reverse. Autopilot ransacking.

Popular Information · In botched DEI purge, OSHA trashes workplace safety guidelinesBy Judd Legum

"The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has ordered the digital and physical destruction of 18 publications on workplace safety practices, according to an internal February 7 email obtained by Popular Information. The email says the publications have been removed from the OSHA website and tells staff that any physical copies should be "disposed of or recycled."

The purge appears to be part of the Trump administration's effort to terminate any activities associated with "diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility," or DEIA. The email advises OSHA staff that "[i]f you have wallet cards that include language, or can be interpreted, on DEIA or gender ideology, please dispose of them as well."

Popular Information has obtained archived versions of most of the deleted publications. Almost all of them are not associated with DEIA topics but appear to have been targeted because they include a DEIA-related keyword used in a completely different context."
