Reprints
Shipping, transportation and warehousing companies were among the industries singled out by the National Council for Occupational Safety and Health in its annual list of unsafe employers.
National COSH, in its report released Wednesday, also highlights that workplace fatalities are on the rise and that Latino and Black workers are dying on the job at a higher rate than other workers — consistent with federal data.
Among the companies highlighted included Amazon Inc., FedEx Corp., and Norfolk Southern Corp., which have all been the focus of workplace safety investigations by the U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration for upticks in injuries.
