Abstract:

Both H.R. 6054 and 6055 seem t o qo a long way in meeting the objections of small business to OSHA, while yet requiring that workers be protected in a safe working environment. Individuals who have constitutional or moral objections t o the concept of OSHA will probably endorse the repeal bills in Congress, while Rep. Robin Beard's bill tries to eliminate many of those features of the present OSHA law that concern small businessman and farmer/rancher alike .
