| tutaj: kantowac/szachrowac
Explanation:
Rip pewnie od 'rip off': 'nabrac/okantowac'; 'skip': 'dac noge';
Przetlumaczylbym to jako: 'znajda jakiegos chetnego cwaniaka a ty sie znajdziesz na bruku';

Mam wrazenie, ze to nie zmienia specjalnie wymowy znaczenia, a 'rip and skip' w odniesieniu do azbestu jest moim zdaniem gra slow wzieta z 'rip and skip' jako kantowania.

In addition, in many instances, employees were neither required to use nor provided with necessary protective and decontamination equipment required during asbestos removal.

coś po linii:
znajdą kogoś, kto machnie/przymknie oko na BHP, a ciebie zwolnią - ew. 'oleje BHP' (ale to już na pograniczu dobrego smaku)
