1. The employer does not provide adequate PPE including face masks. Employees were only provided two face masks since March. They were required to supply their own. 2. The face shields fog and cause difficulty breathing on the line. It is difficult to see while trying to keep up with production. 3. The employer has not implemented adequate social distancing practices. Employees working on the production lines are in near proximity to each other (side by side and across from each other). Employees utilizing restrooms during breaks and at the time clock cause congestion and lack of proper social distancing. 4. There are a limited number of handwashing stations to disinfect employees hands during the work day. 5. The employer refuses to slow the production line speed. The high line speed coupled with the face masks and face shields has caused employees to struggle breathing and a few to faint. 6. The employer has not effectively separated ill employees from others in the work place. The employer has not notified workers of possible contact with co-workers who have tested positive with COVID-19. 7. The ill employees do not stay home because the employer incentivizes not missing work by paying a bonus.Alleged Hazards: 7, Employees Exposed: 200
