This is a new blog dedicated to discussing those problems. Employers do have a responsibility to create a safe work place. Employees have to follow guidelines. But people are still injured. Employers have a responsibility to take care of their injured workers. This blog will discuss issues related to all of that, plus news of what is happening about working off shore.
