What difficulty did both Chinese and Japanese immigrants face when trying to pass through immigration stations in the late 1800s

Gennadij [26K]

Both were targets of the Chinese Exclusion Act. This act barred laborers from entering the United States. Immigration officers were strict with Chinese immigrants because they were willing to work for low wages and during this period the economy was in the decline so they were seen as a threat in terms of employment opportunities. Since the Japanese looked similar to the Chinese they too were put under suspicion.

To develop friendly relations among nations based on respect for the principle of equal rights and self-determination of peoples, and to take other appropriate measures to strengthen universal peace;
To achieve international co-operation in solving international problems of an economic, social, cultural, or humanitarian character, and in promoting and encouraging respect for human rights and for fundamental freedoms for all without distinction as to race, sex, language, or religion; and
To be a centre for harmonizing the actions of nations in the attainment of these common ends.

Which of the following should employers do to actively prevent workplace hazards?

ch4aika [34]

It is not possible to eliminate all hazards. Some occupations have inherent hazards that employees are aware of. Emergency drills should be conducted on a regular basis to insure that they are still adequate. On-site first aid is not a requirement. OSHA regs state that "in absence of an on site infirmary" an employer must have people with first aid training and supplies available.
