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”.

Based on an October 2020 inspection, OSHA cited the Dollar Tree store in Beverly Hills, Florida, for fire, entrapment and struck-by hazards; blocked exit routes; and improperly stacked boxes and other materials that could fall on workers. The agency proposed a penalty of $265,000 against the store.

Since 2018, Dollar Tree stores in Alabama, Florida, Georgia and Tennessee have been cited for Occupational Safety and Health Act violations carrying proposed penalties of more than $1.3 million.

Chesapeake, Virginia-based Dollar Tree has 15 business days to contest the latest citations.
