Case Filed for Sanitation Worker Injured on the Job at Food Corporation

Arnold & Itkin attorneys Jason Itkin and Trent Shelton recently filed suit in Titus County, Texas against a multinational food corporation.

Our client was working a sanitation job for the company when he fell into an unguarded drain, causing catastrophic injuries that he is still recovering from.

This wasn’t the first time the dangerous drain was brought to the company’s attention, however. The defendants had been warned countless times that it was a safety hazard. Still, they ignored the warnings and failed to act. By the time they worked to mitigate the problem, it was too late.

In cases like this, companies must implement rigorous safety protocols and act swiftly on safety concerns raised by employees or identified through inspections. It is imperative that hazards like the unguarded drain are rectified promptly to prevent accidents. This includes not only addressing known issues but also regularly auditing and updating safety measures to reflect current best practices and regulatory requirements.

Our work injury attorneys look forward to holding this corporation accountable for their negligent actions.
