22 Nov 2024 Jindal Tubular USA LLCPipe mill Jindal Tubular: $442,815 settlement after fatal pipe collapse USAWorkplace safety and accidents €425,293

In January 2024, insecurely stacked steel pipes weighing around 900 kg fell at the plant in Bay Saint Louis (Mississippi); a 25-year-old died and a 20-year-old lost both legs. In a settlement with the U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), the manufacturer of large steel pipes is paying $442,815 and must implement external safety consultants, monthly audits, safety professionals on every shift and three years of accident reporting; there had been 46 OSHA citations in five years.

What organisations can take from it

Storage of heavy steel products requires binding stacking rules and exclusion zones – and repeated citations lead to far-reaching conditions.
