    I would think the company you work for would provide you with proper PPE.

    No sadly they dont. They dont even store things properly. The owner of the business is also a tite wade a penny pincher doesnt want to buy things when we need them and my boss is cool. The big owner is the problem i even reported the conditions to osha in a email they never showed up=( unless someone is injured they wont said a person review on osha website.

    Oh no, that is a real big problem. I hope they will notice your report or give some attention.
