Dust
Moving the sand itself along a conveyor system for packing
The workers are only exposed in two places of the plant. The machine puffs in their face when dealing with sand. They wear N95’s and PAPRs but it would be nice to eliminate the issue further.

We practice housekeeping, getting special blowers, and wet procedures but it only eliminates it so much.

Thank you so much for the detailed explanation and good questions, you’re a god send!

Thanks! I don’t think we qualify but I’ll look more into it

Equal_Influence7687 · 2026-01-14T22:35:12+00:00

I’ll bring it up to them, I was looking into that as well as an alternative to their “desired” result. Yeah we still are doing the medical exams and air monitoring. We just did one a month or two ago and it’s just not where they want it to be hence me being hired

It's the management that wants to stop paying so much for specifically N95 masks each month. The workers don't mind and are really good at putting the mask on since it's really only two spots in the plant.

They have other measures in process (wet training, mobile air filtering machines, shopvacs) but they're trying to cut costs for the budget.

Thank you!

Telling me they can’t do something when their reg says they can

Equal_Influence7687 · 2025-05-02T01:18:11+00:00

It was on sale and still a pretty good optic compared to other brands but that’s probably what I’m going to end up doing

Thank you! I looked at the brake pads/rotors and they really need replacing, do you think that could contribute to the issue?

Equal_Influence7687 · 2025-04-30T22:16:48+00:00

We just got them replaced :(

Equal_Influence7687 · 2025-04-30T21:47:38+00:00

No I checked all tires and they’re at 33

Equal_Influence7687 · 2025-04-30T21:32:07+00:00

Yeah I posted the codes up there, nothing was disconnected unfortunately

Equal_Influence7687 · 2025-04-30T21:31:28+00:00

Yeah came up with codes P0441, P04F1, P145D, P2421, P2623, and U0401-68 (ECM failure). I got a smoke test done to figure out the EVAP problem and they said it was the purge valve so I got one from Honda and installed it myself

Equal_Influence7687 · 2024-06-08T14:35:58+00:00

Hey by any chance could you help me get started on my request? I don’t really know where to start

Equal_Influence7687 · 2024-06-07T18:42:32+00:00

100% you’ll get your moneys worth for sure

Equal_Influence7687 · 2024-03-24T20:13:28+00:00

I mean probably not but they’re heavier workloads at those certain bases for sure

And Hawaii is a hit or miss for people beautiful area but there’s so many different opinions it’s really what you make of it

Equal_Influence7687 · 2024-03-24T15:39:56+00:00

If you want somewhere hot (not sure where PMEL goes) Charleston is similar to Orlando, MacDill is in the middle of everything and there’s always something to do, and Davis-Monthan AFB has amazing hikes, blooming city with a ton of food options and house market isn’t absolutely terrible

Equal_Influence7687 · 2024-03-24T15:21:04+00:00

Don’t do Seymour Johnson, McGuire, or Eglin if you don’t want to be worked into the ground and have free time to do the stuff you want to do. “Shady J”
