Which of the following is the employer at risk for by raffling off a car to employees who work without injury?

Tax code violation
Discrimination
Retaliation
None of the above

The correct answer is: Retaliation

By raffling off a car to employees who work without injury, the employer may be at risk for retaliation. Retaliation is defined as any adverse action or punishment taken against an employee for engaging in a protected activity, such as reporting a workplace injury. By only rewarding those who do not report injuries, the employer may be seen as trying to discourage employees from reporting workplace injuries, which is a form of retaliation and can lead to legal consequences. While tax code violation and discrimination are also potential risks in the workplace, they are not directly related to raffling off a car to injury-free employees. Choice D is incorrect because, as mentioned, there is a risk of retaliation in this scenario.
