The Occupational Safety and Health Administration has cited a manufacturer in Ohio after the workers there were exposed to hazards despite falls and machine hazards that had been previously identified by the OSHA. According to news from Jan. 17, 2017, the business, SanCasT Inc., has been issued three repeated and four serious safety violations. Together, these violations resulted in proposed penalties of $235,879.<\/p>\n
The same company was cited for similar violations in 2013 and 2014. The area director of the Columbus OSHA stated that when companies repeatedly fail inspections for the same violations, it shows a direct lack of concern for employee safety. Facilities like this manufacturing facility need to look at their machine operations, safety training and guarding training to help protect the employees from hazards in the workplace.<\/p>\n
