OSHA may dismiss scientist over formaldehyde cancer dispute
Dr. Peter F. Infante, head of OSHA’s Carcinogen Identification and Classification Office, faces removal for insubordination after resisting policy shifts on formaldehyde. He warned of cancer risk from high-dose animal tests and challenged industry pushback during a CPSCs hearing. Infante plans to appeal, arguing no official OSHA stance changed and the industry pressured for his ouster. The case tests the Merit Systems Protection Board under Reagan-era policy.
