You Are an Administrative Clerk in the Human Resources Department

question 13

Multiple Choice

You are an administrative clerk in the Human Resources Department of a construction firm. You are aware that there have been several injuries on the job site in the past two months, some of them serious, and know that reports are supposed to be filed with OSHA reporting serious injuries. The HR manager has been complaining bitterly about OSHA, especially since they have done inspections at your firm's job sites twice in the last year, and has made comments like, "It's none of their damned business if one of our guys is stupid enough to get hurt."  It is one of the tasks of the Assistant HR Manager to file reports of serious job accidents, but she has suddenly resigned.  You are asked to temporarily take her place. You do so, and discover in her desk drawer, paper-clipped together, the reports of serious injury which have been prepared over the past 3 months, but not sent to OSHA.  Considering your duties and your legal protections, which of the following would be your best option? ​

• A)send them in an overnight package to OSHA immediately, but say nothing; (maybe they'll think she sent them in)
• B)send them in an overnight package to OSHA immediately, but tell the HR Manager that you have sent in the reports so as to comply with the law
• C)tell the HR Manager that you found the reports, and ask what he wants you to do; (you know what answer you'll get)
