OSHA Cites Texas Indoor Gun Range $214,387

The US Department of Labor Cites Texas Indoor Gun Range $214,387 for Exposing Employees to Unsafe Lead Levels
The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) cited Tap Rack Bang Indoor Shooting Range, LLC operating as The Gun Range for exposing employees to unsafe levels of lead at its location in Killeen Texas.
OSHA investigated the shooting range in August 2018 after receiving a complaint of worker exposure to lead during firing range activities. Inspectors found airborne lead exceeding the permissible exposure limit, and lead contamination on surfaces throughout the facility. OSHA cited the company for failing to replace damaged personal protective equipment, and medically monitor employees for lead-related illnesses; and for sweeping up lead debris rather than using vacuum methods with high-efficiency particulate air filters.

"Thanks for the fast service! I needed my certification before I could begin my new job. I was able to complete the test and print my certificate in time to start work Monday morning." Janet F., Orlando, FL.

"Over 200 employees throughout our offices are required to complete Blood borne Pathogen Certification annually. Employee availability and scheduling conflicts made it nearly impossible to schedule an onsite class. We were pleased to learn that our OSHA requirements can be satisfied online. Looking forward to the ease of use next year." Mary M., Cardinal Health
