Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Blayne may be entitled to protection from discharge under the Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSHA) because his refusal to transfer was based on concerns about workplace safety and exposure to hazardous chemicals. OSHA protects employees who report and refuse to work in hazardous conditions from retaliation such as discharge or discrimination. The Family and Medical Leave Act (B) provides protected leave for certain family or medical reasons, which is not relevant in this case. The state workers' compensation act (D) provides benefits to employees who suffer work-related injuries, but does not protect against discharge.
