Can you POSSIBLY say UNION more??? Holy cow, you’re talking about over half a century ago when this happened! So THE UNION, as UNIONS want to do, did well bringing this to light. But now, in the 21st century, workers are well aware of on the job hazards. I’m proud that it took a woman who obviously was the only person with ball$ enough to try and remedy this. Good going guys. Unions now are corrupt and the only people who benefit are the bosses.
Excellent podcast

Heading into the era of Trump and Elon Musk getting rid of unions, a sobering reminder of what’s going to happen to workers.
