Chrysler Fined on Job Safety
Associated Press
WASHINGTON — The Chrysler Corp. has agreed to pay a $295,000 fine--the largest ever levied for workplace safety violations--on charges that it under-reported job accidents at auto plants in Illinois, Delaware and Ohio, the Labor Department announced today.
The department’s Occupational Safety and Health Administration said the agreement effectively settles 182 citations for “willful” violations that the agency brought against Chrysler last November.
