A Robbinsville, New Jersey frozen food manufacturer with a history of violating federal safety and health standards was cited again by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), after a worker suffered an amputation last August.
The agency determined the company exposed workers to lockout/tagout hazards – where energy may be inadvertently released – and cited it for eight violations, amounting to a $551,719 penalty.
CJ TMI Manufacturing America manufactures frozen dumplings, wontons and noodles for the Twin Marquis and Chef One brands.
“This company continues to leave its workers vulnerable to hazardous conditions that threaten their safety,” said OSHA Area Director Paula Dixon-Roderick. “These hazards must be addressed immediately to prevent another incident.”
Including this inspection, OSHA said it has inspected CJ TMI Manufacturing America six times in the past five years and placed the company in the Severe Violator Enforcement Program after an inspection produced a significant case in 2021.
The company has 15 business days to comply, request an informal conference with OSHA, or contest the findings.
