      ab: A study was conducted to examine the enforcement effects of mandated safety and health committees. A comparison of Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) inspection records for the two years preceding and following the implementation of committee mandates in Oregon in 1991 indicates that mandated committees significantly increased the differences between union and nonunion workplaces in OSHA enforcement, with enforcement strengthening considerably in union workplaces but moving upward only marginally in nonunion workplaces. The committees thus seem to have acted more as supplements to than substitutes for labor unions.
