Can, but do they?
What are the economic costs of getting cancer to society? Especially if we start talking about public health funding to treat said cancers (medicare, medicaid).
And what are those costs? Particularly in the mining industry we've seen how mine owners just love skimping on PPE or clearing out methane [1]. It's just cheaper to roll the dice with worker lives.
