[QUOTE="10 Pt, post: 2891957"] First: If your picture or any of your co-workers is in your avatar REMOVE the pic. Second: Has anyone filed an Art 18 grievance on any of these issues? Third: WRITE (yourself or your group) and sign a letter to your area's OSHA office depicting all of the unsafe work conditions that you can document and add your contact information (phone numbers and email addresses). They will physically come into your facility and investigate the unsafe work conditions you've listed in your letter. They will NOT give your names to the company. Contacting OSHA should be your last resort but in your case it sounds like it's overdue. The reason behind the head injury with bleeding of the brain isn't detailed in your post but that should have been reported already. Most importantly, do not call in a report... write, sign and mail (or fax or email) the documents to OSHA. Include your contact information. Things will start to change at that point because if the same infractions are reported a second time and OSHA validates your second correspondence issues the fine they levy will be deemed "willful" and the next fine can be up to 30 times the first fine.
