Statement by International Union of Bricklayers and Allied Craftworkers President James Boland on the 90-Day Delay of OSHA’s Silica Standard
[Washington, D.C.] April 7, 2017 – On behalf of 75,000 BAC members and all workers, union and non-union, in the masonry industry, we are very concerned by the Trump Administration's decision to postpone enforcement of the Silica Standard. The Standard has been the law of the land for nearly a year, and the construction industry has been given sufficient time to comply.
