Does an Economic Recession equal Compromised Safety?
Background The current economy and the most recent recession have been the worst economic times since the great depression. With companies trying to find ways to survive, there are no sacred cows when it comes to cutting costs. Layoffs, outsourcing, and doing more with less are all strategies that businesses are employing to survive. While the need to cut costs is understandable it is, unfortunate, one of the strategies many companies are using is cutting back on their safety program.
