The subject title comes from a sentence in this report from actual Wisconsin Professionals, in the Construction Trades, making a complaint sent to OSHA about the esteemed elitist Gov. Walker and the example set, very publicly.
Workers Make OSHA Complaint About Unsafe Scott Walker Ad
It’s clear Gov. Walker’s never worked a day of his life in this field.
09/18/2014 - In Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker’s latest ad, he is seen standing in a big hole. What some people might not realize is the unsafe example Walker is setting for workers in this field.
Jeff Kaminski, president of the United Steelworkers (USW) Local 2006, representing workers at investor-owned utilities in the state, made an official complaint with the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) and called for the commercial to be pulled from the air. Says Kaminski:
"It’s clear Gov. Walker’s never worked a day of his life in this field. Gov. Walker should be fined by OSHA, and this commercial should be immediately pulled for safety reasons. This is someone in a leadership position setting an unsafe example for workers. Gov. Walker’s violations send the wrong message to anyone trying to follow the rules and come home safe at the end of the day. Safety is the backbone of the union movement. We want all workers to come home safe at the end of the day. We can’t have an example like this playing statewide."
Not only is Walker not wearing any personal protective equipment, or PPE as it is often referred to, such as a hard hat, safety gloves, work vest or safety glasses, but he is making errors that could end in serious injury.
Kaminski was shocked when he first saw Scott Walker’s ad on TV. read more>>>
As a forced into early retirement, construction multi tradesman, due to conservative policies under the bushco and republican rubber stamping their wants which finally brought on what many forecast would happen with the reagan capitalism new economy, I to am appalled by this so called leaders total lack of common sense and critical thinking.
I don't remember catching anything about, way to many issues being attacked and brought down, but has Wisconsin politics been going after worker compensation as well as business regulations as they have workers rights?
