S.C. Code Regs. § § 71-1020

Current through Register Vol. 48, No. 10, October 25, 2024
Section 71-1020 - Employee Refusal To Comply With Safety Rules

Employees who refuse to comply with occupational safety and health standards or valid safety rules implemented by the employer in furtherance of the Act are not exercising any rights afforded by the Act. Disciplinary measures taken by employers solely in response to employee refusal to comply with appropriate safety and health rules and regulations will not ordinarily be regarded as discriminatory action prohibited by Section 41-15-510. This situation should be distinguished from refusals to work, as discussed in R. 71-1012 of this subarticle.
