Question

Who benefits most from workplace safety regulations?

employers, who are less likely to lose income and productivity due to serious employee injuries
qualified workers with disabilities, against whom employers may no longer discriminate
all workers, who are less likely to miss work because of injury or face high medical bills
rival companies, which gain an advantage by using more cost-effective safety measures

Answer 1

All workers — workplace safety regulations primarily protect employees by reducing injuries, lost work time, and medical bills (though employers also benefit indirectly from fewer disruptions and lower costs).
