OSHA fines retailers for repeated and serious violations related to blocked exits and electric shock hazards.
OSHA issued Macy’s Inc. and The Finish Line $103,220 in penalties after the retailers failed to clear clutter resulting in blocked exit routes and no access to electrical disconnect switches. A federal workplace safety inspection of the Macy's department store in Aventura, Florida found employees at risk due to repeated and serious violations related to blocked exits, improper housekeeping and electric shock hazards. Since 2007, OSHA has inspected Macy's Inc. locations 42 times and issued citations for blocked exits, obstructed access to electrical disconnect panels and using flexible cords instead of permanent wiring.
