I’m looking for stories about workplace safety. Know any good books or movies where safety at work is a big part of the story? I’m really into tales from places like factories or construction sites. Any suggestions? submitted by /u/bozandule [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

A sister location to my workplace recently had a forklift related death and obviously OSHA has been everywhere. For the last week Management has been bouncing back and forth about allowing earbuds/headphones while on the production floor. Today, upper management came in for a visit and banned all forms of electronics on the production floor including earbuds, headphones, speakers, and radios and any other form of media. Now I'm aware that companies are within their rights to make and enforce rules that go above and beyond OHSA regulations, but I'm curious if and what regulations OHSA has on s ..read more

I had allergies and sensitivities before but developed asthma at my workplace. I had an attack after my boss sprayed a sage stay in the air. I’ve had severe reactions after my coworkers wearing perfume. Although, my boss is being mindful about wearing less perfume when I’m at work, others still continue to burn incense (which is a horrible trigger), not really caring much and wear perfume. One of my new coworkers wears strong perfume and she sits right near me. She’s sweet, and I told her that it triggers my attacks, so she switched the scent and wears a bit less of it, but it still does trig ..read more

A few months ago I noticed mold on the ceiling tiles by the front desk (where I work) of my workplace (a gym). I pointed it out to them and since then they “fixed it” but now I just see it coming back due to them not actually fixing the water issue. I looked around the building and found even more! They do not care about employees or those who have memberships here. What should I do? submitted by /u/LabOnly625 [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

Hello. First time posting. I’m curious if any one here could chime in about some practices that happen in my workplace. I work in a warehouse that uses drive in racks that are at the most 6 pallets deep and 5 tiers high. Allowing us to load 30 pallets into one bay. My major concern is that most people working in this facility on an inbound load will raise their load approaching their bay and then turn in with their load already at the height of the tier they are putting the pallet into. And then when exiting the bay, they will turn out and begin to lower their forks while traveling down the a ..read more

I’m trying to keep this as vague as possible just in case this post is found. But I need help on what to do next regarding an unsafe environment due to a person I am currently working with. This person is newer to the company. This employee randomly asked me one day to help him find a girl he has been stalking. Like, physically following her home and watching her. I obviously declined, and since then things have gotten weird. He attempted to grab my arms in the parking lot, and he kept trying to get info on where I went when I left work early one day. He was told it was a person issue by my o ..read more
