Most of the companies are affirmed of osha. VZ is not an exception. But I am curious if osha ever fined or sued VZ. Does osha act on a complaint filed by an employee? Or can they just do random safety checks?
BINGO!!! Same with safety violations & OSHA. Why does vz have such a poor safety track record? Because they can afford to. Why do they do alot of the things they do? Because they can afford to. What is the core of the word "verizon?" .."veritas" meaning "truth." Ironic.
What does this mean?
@ELHzaVS-gwh You are clueless
Complain all you want. Fine as much as you can. Trust me, Verizon has actuaries who run the numbers for EVERYTHING they do. If the actuary says 'you will make X profit by lying, vs X/2 profits by not lying', Verizon WILL lie.. every...single...time. The problem is quite simple. The penalties for lying are FAR too small vs the profit they make. There is only ONE WAY to make a megacorp follow through on it's promises, and that is to make the FINES FAR HIGHER than the cost of non-compliance. Back in 1993 (that's almost 25 years ago), Verizon got appx 4 Billion in 'tax breaks' and subsidies. The solution is quite simple. Take the cost of the subsidies in todays dollars (about 15 Billion), and quadruple it (willful disregard). Ergo, Verizon should be paying New Jersey (and PA too), about 60 BILLION dollars today. Trust me, if the actuaries told verizon back in 1993 that they would have a 60 billion dollar bill, Verizon most certainly would have lived up to their promises. Today, a fine of a billion would be LESS than a slap on the wrist. Make the FINE SO LARGE for lying, the corporations will not really have any choice to finish what they promise. Otherwise, this type of corporate malfeasance will just continue on forever.
