California’s Liberty Union High School District, Brentwood, has recently reached a settlement that allows employees to have a word in the district’s work safety committee. Before this, the committee consisted of no more than two maintenance workers and some school administrators. This meant that teachers and other employees had no word in the committee’s decision conferences.
A former teacher in the district recently found that people and workers in the campus of her old school were facing the dangers involved with asbestos exposure. This was back in 2005. Tanya Smith, the former teacher, made it clear for the authorities that maintenance worker were not disposing properly of removed and replaced floor tiles that were known to contain asbestos. She also mentioned this to the school officials.
This was of no use, because as soon as she made the discovery, she was transferred to another school. This took place after she notified the Californian branch of OSHA, and the transfer took place so that she couldn’t make any more discoveries. The state fined the school for several violations, but to the measly sum of around 14000 dollars. Tanya Smith sued the district two years later, stating that her employer did not follow the law and allowed for workers to spare time while dealing with asbestos issues. She ended the interview mentioning that the students in her class learned that authority can be challenged by law.
