The Occupational Safety and Health Administration has cited and issued combined proposed penalties of $151,200 to Glennco Excavating Inc. and a temporary staffing agency, Labor Ready Northwest Inc., a unit of Tacoma, Washington-based TrueBlue. So reports BusinessInsurance.com.
The alleged workplace safety violations are related to an excavation collapse in Montana. Glennco was cited for violations that include lack of adequate cave-in protection and failure to remove employees from the excavation when cave-in hazards were present.
Labor Ready Northwest Inc. was cited for violations pertaining to inadequate training, among others. Last March, OSHA initiated inspection at the construction site after receiving a complaint that alleged an employee had been partially buried when an excavation collapsed.
