- Some racially insensitive co- workers and outside contractors. There were two
baffling displays of unprofessional and insulting racial insensitivity, one in front
of management and all of the employees by a outside contractor hired to train
the staff regarding safety, and the other was by a long time Crane Currency
employee in front of a group of employees. On both occasions, there were no
disciplinary actions taken.
- Unsafe work environment, poor air quality, a lot of fork lift traffic with blind
turns in areas that have spontaneous foot traffic, cockroaches and mice in same
area allotted to employees to eat and rest, the mill was dilapidated and falling
into the neighboring river, the floor is very old and weakened in many areas that
we were required to operate fork lifts
- Poor training provided by co-workers that barely covers your jobs
requirements and duties. Supplemented by a trivial computer application
that most of the employees google the answers to, that usually covers safety
protocols
- Management is too detached from the day to day work environment, and openly
play favorites. Allowing the favorites to alter their own work schedule, affecting
other employees schedules, and even permitting some to work together; in
direct violation of company policy
- Over working employees to keep up with customer demand, some employees
drive over a hour to work, but are pressured to do double shifts. Preventing
them from getting adequate sleep, and putting them at risk.
- Sporadic work schedule, involving a swing shift
- Some employees are constantly starting verbal altercations
