Federal Contractors: Historical Perspective on Noncompliance With Labor and Worker Safety Laws

GAO discussed federal contractors' noncompliance with federal labor laws, focusing on: (1) federal contractors' noncompliance with the National Labor Relations Act (NLRA) during fiscal years (FY) 1993 and 1994 and with the Occupational Safety and Health (OSH) Act during FY 1994; and (2) the status of recommendations GAO made to the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) and to the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) in those reports involving the use of information on federal contractors to enhance workplace health and safety and workers' rights to bargain collectively.
