OSHA Cites Ohio Foundry for Safety, Health Violations

摘要

The federal Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) is proposing fines totaling 253,350 dollars for St. Marys Foundry Inc., St. Marys, OH, for 31 alleged violations of workplace safety and health standards. The violations, including three that are characterized as willful violations and two as other-than-serious violations of OSHA standards, were discovered during safety and health inspections at the foundry on June 28, 2006. These inspections were the result of St. Marys Foundry being placed on OSHA's site-specific target inspection list because of high injury rates and Ohio's Primary Metals Industry Local Emphasis Program.
