The United States Department of Labor Fines South Jersey Wholesale Produce Supplier $236,089
August 8, 2019
In pleasantville, NJ, Paris Produce Incorporated faces fines for failing to correct workplace hazards identified during a previous investigation at the wholesale supplier’s facility.
OSHA initiated a follow-up inspection after Paris Produce Incorporated failed to respond to citations previously issued. During the follow-up visit, OSHA inspectors found two failure-to-abate violations for allowing employees to operate forklifts without proper training, and failing to develop and implement a hazard communication program for employees using chemicals for cleaning and sanitation.
“By failing to fix previously cited hazards, Paris Produce continues to expose employees to preventable workplace safety and health hazards, which is unacceptable,” said OSHA Area Director Paula Dixon-Roderick, in Marlton, New Jersey.

"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
