Hispanic Deaths On The Job Up By Two Percent.

This is the second (and hopefully last) post I'll have to make on the morbid trend of Latino deaths increasing in the American workplace. While overall workplace fatalities are down 1% in 2005, Hispanic deaths increased 2%... to a new high. Safety Education/Training is the simple, affordable, life-saving solution.

I'm hoping someone from OSHA gives me a call about this. TV Trainer CAN help save lives!

Fatalities amongst farm workers were also up sharply, increasing by 23 percent in 2005 over 2004.
