The Validity of Warrantless Searches under the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970

Shanks, Michael D.

University of Cincinnati Law Review, 44, 1, 105-14, 75

One of the most controversial federal acts providing for random administrative searches is the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970 (OSHA). The author reviews the search and seizure law and concludes that abandonment of Fourth Amendment rights should not be predicated on the mere convenience of even a justifiable regulatory scheme. (JT)
