BI’s Article search uses Boolean search capabilities. If you are not familiar with these principles, here are some quick tips.

To search specifically for more than one word, put the search term in quotation marks. For example, “workers compensation”. This will limit your search to that combination of words.

To search for a combination of terms, use quotations and the & symbol. For example, “hurricane” & “loss”.

OSHA cites chain-link fence maker for multiple violations

U.S. federal workplace safety regulators have cited and proposed $199,996 in penalties against a chain-link fencing manufacturer for multiple safety violations at a New Jersey facility.

The U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration cited New York-based Aruvil International Inc. after agency inspectors identified violations such as inadequate lighting, lack of machine guards, failing to inspect and ensure proper use of fall protection and failing to provide effective training on hazardous chemicals in a June 2017 inspection, according to an OSHA statement issued Tuesday.

An investigation in August 2015 found similar violations, according to the agency.

“To protect its workers, the employer should abate these repeatedly identified hazards,” Paula Dixon-Roderick, OSHA’s Marlton, New Jersey area office director, said in the statement.

A company spokesperson could not immediately comment on the citations and proposed fines.
