Professor Susan Bisom-Rapp was quoted in the lead article of Bloomberg Law’s Daily Labor Report, “Cal/OSHA Work Safety Criminal Investigations Spark Legal Tests,” discussing expanded criminal liability for serious workplace injuries. She noted that this approach “gives the state more power to intervene on behalf of workers to try to isolate those employers that might be responsible for the worst harms” and "it also more readily pulls in for potential criminal prosecution those employers that are the worst of the worst.” Subscribers of the Bloomberg Law can read the full article here.
