Q1. Identify the primary issue in the case. Is OSHA applicable?
Ans1. The Breyer Meat packing, Inc. is one of the biggest meat packing organizations in the
Midwest. The primary issue, in this case, is the lack of proper human rights management.
They have failed to put measures in the organization to consider the employee grievances
concerning the discomforts that they deal while conducting operations. It is stated that most
of the workers are suffering from arm, hand, and wrist injury, which is associated to the habit
of doing the same errands required for their jobs as meat cutters in the organization.
However, management has failed in considering and solving these concerns.
It is stated that the OSHA is applicable for this case, as the company needs to deliver the
safety as well as health evaluation for the meat packing business. The main role of OSHA is
to make sure that the workers are safe, healthy, and the management needs to handle the
situation if the workers are mistreated into the organization. They need to resolve the issue
and ensure that the workers are comfortable in executing their duties (Compa, 2017).
Q2. Provide two specific recommendations to resolve the issue.
Ans2. The specific recommendation to resolve the issue is-
 I would recommend OSHA because it assists the organization to conduct a full
inspection to determine that the employee claims are accurate. The Breyer Meat
packing organization can ensure through existing recordkeeping and reporting the
methodology of all work-related injuries and distresses. They need to ensure that
employees are well trained in security measures.
 It is stated that the organization are liable for all the offences so they need to make
sure that all the employees who had been fired for making complaints were properly
reimbursed as they needs to follow the rules and regulations in the enterprise
(Romero, Mattsson, Fast-Berglund, Wuest, Gorecky & Stahre, 2018).
