Who pays the fine if OSHA caches you on the job without wearing a hardhat company or the employee?

OSHA is authorized to fine only employers, so the employer will pay the fine.However, there is nothing to prevent the employer from disciplining you for not following their requirement that you wear a hard hat or other personal protective equipment, if there was such a requirement. If they had such a rule, and you did not follow it, causing them to have to pay a fine, your employer might fine you, suspend you or fire your, depending on their internal process.

Can an employer ask you for a reason not to suspend you?

(in India) Reasons are required:Yes, the good administration and honest administration requires that the order of suspension be supported by reasons. The competent authority, while passing an order of suspension may not quote chapter and the verse, but he is obliged to cover the grounds or short reasons for suspending its employee.Why reasons are required?The reasons in support of order of suspension is necessary, because the "suspension" is subject to judicial review. Beside this, the order of suspension is also subject to appeal before the higher authority under the Disciplinary rules.Find something more in this connection:First of all, the meaning of suspension is an act to temporarily debar, and or prevent the employee from the discharge of his active duties. The employer has inherent right to suspend its employees, when the departmental inquiry is contemplated or pending, or when the criminal trial, inquiry, or investigation is going against him. Suspension is not a penalty, but an interim action that prevents an employee from performing his active duties in his office. The suspension is resorted to against the employee so that he may not temper with the evidence, or influence the witnesses.For exhaustive details on the subject, please go through the Cases, materials and commentaries on Gujarat Civil Services (Discipline and Appeal) Rules by Hemang D. Rana, Advocate.Another View: Actually, insufficient information is given in the question about the reason for the suspension action.(in the US) Although it may seem to make no sense to suspend someone (presumably for disciplinary reasons) without telling them the reason why. . ., if you are working for an employer in a so-called 'at will' or 'right-to-wrork' state, you MAY be subject to such an action. You would have to contact the agency of state government which enforces state labor laws to determine if that procedure is lawful in your particular state or not.


The police investigated employee protecting pregnant shopper from violence. Police Chief is incredulous toward Safeway. Should Safeway have suspend good a samaritan employee without pay?

This is more of an PR question than a legal question. Safeway is not under obligation to suspend the worker while the police investigate an incident concerning him (bear in mind that the police will talk to everyone involved in the case, and this does not necessarily make the employee a suspect). Whether it chooses to do so is, like I said, a question that depends on Safeway.
