Eight employees at the factory were killed in a tornado nearly a week ago, and survivors have accused the company of threatening to fire them if they left.

Workers who survived the deadly collapse of a Kentucky candle factory during an outbreak of tornadoes are suing their employer for"flagrant indifference" in allegedly refusing to let them leave early.

When the tornado leveled the factory in Mayfield and left nothing but rubble, officials initially thought the death toll could be as high as 70. Supervisors also took a roll call to see who had left, Johnson said, though a company spokesman denied the accusation.
