The "Radium Girls" lawsuits, brought by women factory workers who suffered severe health issues, led to what significant changes?
The "Radium Girls" case in the 1920s significantly impacted workplace safety and health by highlighting the dangers of radium exposure and leading to changes in labor law and safety practices. Their advocacy resulted in stronger occupational disease laws, the banning of lip-brushing by dial painters, and the development of new safety guidelines. These efforts ultimately played a crucial role in establishing the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA).
