Home » Virginia plant cited for repeat safety violations
The state of Virginia’s Occupational Safety and Health Program has issued seven citations and $187,000 in penalties to a food and beverage company after a worker’s arm was caught in a conveyor near the metal detector.
Inspectors found that the company failed to inspect energy control procedures annually, train workers on the control of hazardous energy and provide adequate machine guarding. Worse yet, the company had been cited for these violations in 2016.
