Question

Forward Fuels is a chemicals manufacturer with a large research and development team searching for new alternatives to gasoline. Because it develops new chemicals and is constantly innovating, the Department of Labor cannot possibly keep up with specific safety and health standards for its workplace. Some of the managers are asking Destiny, the human resource manager, if that means they don't have to bother trying to comply with all the OSHA regulations. What should Destiny recommend?

Answer 1

The OSHA regulations should still be followed. Failure to do so will expose the company to fees, penalties, and potential legal vulnerabilities.
