On the recordSeptember 5, 1997
Reclaiming my time, that worries me because we have not seen a lessening of injuries on the job. Maybe what we need to do is make OSHA better by providing more funding for training of those inspectors and more inspectors to go out and inspect those sites. As the gentleman from Wisconsin, the ranking member, said, there are only 900 OSHA inspectors and they inspect the average workplace once every 87 years. We need to do a better job.
