Complaint Review: Rex lumber Corporation

the company terminated a group of employees for becoming sick, and working on the job some sustained injuries that they occurred while working, one employee suffered injuries and filed a safety complaint, and was later terminated for filing such complaint, the company also had a group of employees clean and repair critical woodworking equipment, which in this case was a confined space environment, a permit is required, for this type of work. no permit was posted at the work site,The company was visited by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration in October 2018, was taken to court and fined, for specified safety violations. {Rex lumber co, date-08/20/2018 OSHA inspection number 1320351-information is being provided so you may look this up on your own,employees are not properly trained to run wood molding machines, and one employee had his fingers almost cut off because of poor instructional training, and no certification on wood molding equipment. No the company does not treat all employees fairly, especially women, no women work in the mill, there are no women's bathrooms in the mill, and women are basically discriminated against, from generally working in the mill. Okay so now you know a little bit about the company, but here's the real reason, a former employee, recorded a supervisor in a conversation about how they cheat customers, it went something like this. The company is a business-to-business wholesaler of wood products more specifically, expensive moldings. If a customer purchases any type of wood moldings or other wood products from Rex lumber. They are overcharged by about 8 to 10 times, as example, a customer purchased $2000 worth of wood moldings from Rex lumber company. But there was a problem with the molding surface, it had to be reworked, the standard charge would have been 2 times the charge, one charge is to retool the machine, and the 2nd charge is for labor. The additional charges amounted to about 6 to 8 times, for the retooling charge about $13,000, in a sneaky ripoff. in violation of specified laws of the United States Federal Trade Commission, price-fixing, for one thing. Okay that's about it all I ask. is, if you become interested in this story, do your homework and check out the facts for yourself, I believe all OSHA reports of public information.one last thing before I go, please keep in mind. Some of the employees that were terminated by Rex lumber have no money, cannot get any unemployment insurance, have no medical insurance, have no medicine. And our renters. Only one payment away from being kicked out onto the streets and being homeless in America, they call it land of the plenty, when the term should be land of the greedy corporations.
