Question

Though employers are allowed to use appropriate disciplinary, incentive, or drug-testing programs, what are they not allowed to do? A. Use these programs to discourage employees from exercising their right to report injuries and illnesses B. Use these programs in an effort to improve workplace safety C. Reward employees for adhering to policies D. Discipline employees for adhering to safety protocols

Answer 1

The correct answer is A.

Employees should never be discouraged from reporting injuries on the job. However, if an employee reports an injury on the job as a product of violating an applicable safety code, the employer is allowed to take away an incentive (not for reporting the injury, but for having violated a safety code).
