The U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Review Commission has vacated a workplace safety citation and proposed fines issued to a Georgia cold food storage company.
In an order announced Monday, the commission said the Occupational Safety and Health Administration failed to prove Americold Logistics LLC allowed an untrained worker to operate a powered industrial vehicle in violation of federal workplace safety standards.
The worker suffered a leg injury in July 2022 while driving a fork truck at the company’s Bloomingdale, Georgia, facility.
OSHA had issued a workplace safety citation alleging two serious violations and proposed $24,240 in penalties.
