Living in constant worry about OSHA? You're not alone. Dean Hearl, General Manager of Noffsinger Manufacturing, shares with us: “We were living in a state of constant worry that OSHA was going to swoop in, and we were woefully unprepared for that.”
In September 2016, Noffsinger Manufacturing enlisted Hellman & Associates to conduct a Compliance Action Assessment at their Greeley, Colorado facility. The assessment unearthed 79 potential deficiencies that could have led to OSHA citations and penalties. Simultaneously, a comprehensive machine guarding assessment was performed, including video documentation of machinery in operation and interviews with employees and management.
To address the identified risks and recommendations, Noffsinger joined Hellman & Associates's annual partnership program ASSUREDCompliance®. Together, they systematically prioritized corrective actions, forming a safety committee, conducting onsite safety training, and implementing monthly site assessments. Employees actively participated in hazard identification and mitigation, with incentives such as paid time off. A successful machine guarding prototype was tested and implemented in the wire crimping operation.
Noffsinger is one of many companies whose safety protocols and procedures were transformed by our services.
