Norwalk Furniture cited for safety violations

28.08.2008 11:01 Shopping - Source: toledoblade.com

NORWALK — The Toledo office of the U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration has proposed fines of $12,750 against Norwalk Furniture Corp. for alleged workplace safety violations this year.

The struggling furniture manufacturer was cited for seven serious problems that occurred between March and June. All the violations were related to use and maintenance of saws and a sewing machine.

The fines were issued Aug. 13. The company has the right to appeal the findings. Norwalk Furniture shut down for several days in the past month after its lender cut off financing, but has since resumed operations while a sale of the company is negotiated.
