An employer informs its employees that it will hold a substantial cash prize drawing for each work group at the end of each month in which all members of the work group comply with applicable safety rules, such as wearing required fall protection. doug sustains a lost-time injury when he falls from a platform while not wearing required fall protection. doug’s employer cancelled the cash prize drawing for doug’s work group that month because doug failed to wear required fall protection. the employer actively monitors its workforce for compliance with applicable work rules and cancels the cash prize drawings when it discovers work rule violations regardless of whether the employee who violated the work rule also reported an injury. did the employer use an incentive program to retaliate against doug?

No, it's not retiliation, it's part of the employers responsability.

Explanation:

The incentive program was informed before the accident even took place. The employer is required to pay close attention and make sure all safety rules are being followed and assure the employee's health is under no risks. The incentive in the example promotes following safety rules, however, if the employee doesn't follow them, is under his/her own responsibility, but the employer has to find a legal way to enforce them, like removing the incentive in this case.

the reason some people sacrifice their own life for another person's life could be that they are in love with them and would do anything to keep them safe a protected even if that means risking their life in the process

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
