In your safety inspection of the worksite, you notice in the carpenter shop that the radial saw's guard has been removed. The shop foreman states that the guard is preventing him from cutting lumber for a special project that must be completed before the end of the week.

As the safety manager, can you support this action and condition? Why, or why not?
