According to the civil complaint, PSSI hired 31 minors between ages 13-17 to clean meat packing plants in Minnesota and Nebraska and several of those minors, including a 13-year-old, suffered chemical burns and other injuries. Via WPR's JoeSchulz3:

and employs 17,000 people who clean 700 food processing plants nationwide.

In a statement, a spokesperson for PSSI denied that the company employed minors and said it has cooperated with the investigation. According to Barab, the decapitation"cut the head off a worker who was trying to clean a machine that was turned on while his head was inside it." In a statement, a company spokesperson said safety is PSSI’s"highest priority" and that the cases in the report were misrepresented. The company says one case was determined to be a non-work-related death, while no OSHA citation was issued for another and two more involved employees who did not follow company protocols.

WPR JoeSchulz3 . I was neglected & abused as a child. My parents divorced when I was 14. I got my first paycheck job that week. Sweet memories.

WPR JoeSchulz3 Evil corporations shut them down PERIOD FOR GOOD.

WPR JoeSchulz3 They aren't minors. They are undocumented adults.

WPR JoeSchulz3 It is a national cleaning contract company extending across the entire nation. The crews tend to not have adequate supervision and with a regional supervisor overseeing multiple facilities nightly, their hiring and training procedures are very suspect.

WPR JoeSchulz3 How is this not a criminal complaint tho? Cuz unless they sue for control of the company and promptly sell it for a fortune, the fines will barely be noticed. And they'll just...do it again.

WPR JoeSchulz3 LisaBloom right up your alley! How about those blue collar 13 year olds?!

WPR JoeSchulz3 Seriously, people need to go to jail! It’s disgusting showing how out of control corporate greed has become. But, sure keep telling me how it’s inflation!
