Dalton Foundry of Warsaw was cited for two violations recently after a review of a June incident in which an amputation occurred. The related violations are considered "serious" and the Indiana Department of Labor Occupational Safety and Health Administration has proposed a $5,000 fine to be levied against the company.Dalton is contesting the allegations. According to IOSHA, the violations were grouped because they involve related hazards that may increase the potential for injury resulting from an accident. The first violation indicates that industrial truck drivers were not required to slow down and sound the horn at cross aisles wherever vision was obstructed, and that on June 5 such a violation resulted in an amputation.IOSHA officials declined to name the injured worker.
