註釋
Workplace injuries are common, avoidable, and unacceptable.
The
Political Economy of Workplace Injury in Canada
reveals how
employers and governments engage in ineffective injury prevention
efforts, intervening only when necessary to maintain standard
legitimacy. Barnetson sheds light on this faulty system, highlighting
the way in which employers create dangerous work environments yet pour
billions of dollars into compensation and treatment. Examining this
dynamic clarifies the way in which production costs are passed on to
workers in the form of workplace injuries.
