The impact of different government units in the regulation of the workplace environment

Abstract

This study examines the issue of whether or not state and federal job safety agencies provide the same levels of public output. Tests are conducted on the hypothesis that state takeover of regulation from the federal program serves to reduce the costs of firms. These costs are comprised of two components: the penalties for noncompliance and the uncertainty costs of regulation. The public policy implication that is drawn from these tests is that it matters to firms which government unit regulates them. Copyright Martinus Nijhoff Publishers 1981
