Go through the below given Case Study of a fire incidence carefully describe the status of Tetrahedron in this case and list down the violations of OHSE either done by employees or the company. Also suggest what steps company should follow to avoid the fire or minimize the loss. The Imperial Food Products plant, located in Hamlet, North Carolina, was owned and operated by Emmet J. Roe. Its 30,000 square foot, one-story, brick-and-cinder-block facility had no windows but had nine exits, including loading docks. The 200 employees were predominantly female. Chicken breasts were cooked, frozen, and packaged for resale to restaurant chains and frozen food companies. The facility did not have a building wide sprinkler system at the time of the fire, but a carbon dioxide fire extinguishing system had been installed in the cooking area following a fire in the early 1980s. It was not known if the system was operational at the time of the fire (Rives and Mather, 1991, p. 1A). The incident began when an overhead hydraulic line ruptured and sprayed flammable hydraulic fluid on the floor in the frying area. Natural gas burners, used to heat the large chicken fryers, ignited the vapors of the fluid and caused a fire killing 25 workers and injuring an additional 49 employees (Hughes, 1991, p. 8J). As employees tried to exit the burning building, they found the fire exit doors locked. Management had locked several exits to prevent employees from stealing chickens. One door was kicked down as employees fled from the fire and suffocating smoke. A fire investigator later found a door marked ‘‘Fire Exit—Do Not Block’’ padlocked. Some employees could not find a way out and tried to hide in the freezer; most of them died by suffocation. The Imperial Food Products plant opened its doors ten years prior to the fire. Over those ten years. The town of Hamlet was not required to make inspections, although it was up to the municipality to enforce fire regulations. Ironically, every day the plant was in operation, there was a federal inspector on site to make sure the chicken processed was acceptable for consumption. Locking a fire door is a violation of North Carolina’s fire code, a misdemeanor in this case. The state fire code requires all municipalities to have a fire inspector, even though a minimum number of inspections is not specified. Under the occupational safety regulations, a locked exit door constitutes a serious violation and because management locked fire exits knowingly, it would have been a willful violation
