DESCRIPTION:2/15/21 Oakland Rally To Demand 1,000 Ca-OSHA Inspectors, PPE  & Health and 
 Safety On The Job\nStop The Murders and Pandemic In Our Workplaces 
 NOW!\n\nMonday February 15, 2021 12:00 noon \nOakland State Building OSHA 
 Offices\n1515 Clay St.\nOakland\n\nWorkers and trade unionists will speak 
 about about the failure of the the California Cal-OSHA to protect workers 
 on the job.\nThere are less than 200 inspectors in California for 18 
 million workers. In fact there are more Fish and Game inspectors than OSHA 
 inspectors.\nIn Los Angeles over 700 longshoreman are infected and 12 have 
 died.  At Foster Farms in the Central Valley 13 workers have died and 
 workers face a lack of PPE and masks to protect their lives and those of 
 their families. Farmworkers in California are being treated as disposable 
 workers. \nThis is over a year after the pandemic has ripped through 
 California workplaces.\nHealthcare workers at Highland Hospital, San 
 Francisco General, Kaiser, Sutter and UC are still fighting against reusing 
 PPE masks and gowns and Cal-OSHA is unable to do regular physical 
 inspections even after complaints. Healthcare workers are dying as a result 
 of the failure to have proper protection for them and their 
 patients.\nPlants like billionaire  Elon Musk’s Tesla in Fremont has no  
 Cal-OSHA  inspections to enforce the law  and other workers at Amazon, UBER 
 and even  public transit agencies are not getting regular inspections 
 because of the virtual collapse of Cal-OSHA. Governor Newsom  earlier this 
 year instituted  a freeze on hiring.  Although this has recently been 
 lifted this we are seeing the death agony of this critical agency in the 
 middle of a deadly and \nhistoric pandemic. Apparently profits are above 
 lives for the worker of California\nCal-OSHA has become a ghost agency when 
 workers need it the most.\nFor more
