Twice I've seen this policy in action. A girl slipped on wet stairs, cracked her elbow, tailbone, and back of her head on the steel steps. The second time a guy crashed his power equipment into a steel support beam and busted his eye open.

The manager made them sit, untreated for hours, until a drug testing company they use could send someone out to the facility. Both times these kids sat with head injuries and blood running down their faces and were refused their requests to go to the hospital or to even have an ambulance called to be treated at the scene. The company was more concerned about trying to bust them for weed in their system so they wouldn't have to pay any medical or unemployment expenses.

I've been rising middle management at this place for a few years but this has turned me off to staying here any longer. They were pretty good at everything else. The pay, PTO, and benefits are good. The work and schedule are easy. No real attendance policy or point system. Regular raises. It seemed like a great company for blue collar workers until this. It's the most cold blooded bullshit I've seen in the workplace in person and it made me yell at my boss in anger. Making potentially seriously injured people sit in their own blood and pain for hours just to make them piss in a cup whenever a tester could be roused out of bed at night? To do a test that could easily be done at the hospital!

I want no more part of this place. I'm updating my resume tonight.
