Don't Neglect Ammonia Pipe Marking

Oregon OSHA recently cited a national refrigerated warehouse operation for 10 willful violations, four serious repeat violations and 22 other serious violations of the Oregon Safe Employment Act. Fines totaled $740,400. Sound like a lot? No question that is a lot. These citations and fines came largely as a result of Americold Logistics' failure to protect its workers from a hazardous chemical called anhydrous ammonia. But what's worse than surrendering that amount of money is the fact that Americold Logistics willfully put so many people at risk of serious injury and death.

Now that's scary.
