The Labor Departments Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has removed data on worker fatalities from the homepage of its website.
The agency previously included a link on the front page of its website to a list of workers who had been killed on the job. The list included the workers name, date they died and cause of death.
As of Friday, the box was replaced with links to information on how OSHA is working with employers to create safer workplaces. The list of worker fatalities is now under a separate section deeper into the site. The most recent death listed was on June 2.
The change was first reported by Politico.

Who investigated Quid Pro Quo's? Last I checked they are still illegal! It is so accepted and widespread we don't even bother to investigate and reporters do not report it, but that is another story.
