ShannonFatalities and injuries among Latino workers are quite high due to their high level of involvement in hazardous jobs. On May 11, 2010 in Chicago the U.S. Department of Labor’s Occupational Safety and Health Administration signed an alliance with the Consulate General of Mexico as part of an effort to promote worker safety in Illinois and Wisconsin.
“The purpose of this alliance is to provide Mexican and other Latino workers in Illinois and Wisconsin with information and resources that will help them recognize and challenge unsafe and improper working conditions,” said OSHA Regional Administrator Michael Connors in Chicago. “I am extremely confident this partnership is going to raise awareness within the Latino community and make the workplace safer.”
