Research batch 19
Batch 19.
Batch 19 (7 Oct 2026) narrows the question to one sequence: a person reports a hazard; the institution turns to the reporter's mental fitness; a psychiatric referral, examination, threat, detention, diagnosis or employment restriction follows; the hazard report is addressed, sidelined or left open. It opens with Petitt v. Delta from the Department of Labor's own decisions, adds the nuclear-sector precedent Diaz-Robainas v. Florida Power & Light, maps the federal, military, nuclear, rail and California-healthcare rules that name psychiatric referral as a possible reprisal, and separates the NRC's chilled-work-environment record from psychiatric-specific retaliation.
