Halo Top ice cream maker faces OSHA penalties after New Jersey workers lose fingers

The federal agency concluded that the company violated safety standards for preventing accidental machine startup in both incidents. Fieldbrook Foods knew that machines must be completely disabled before workers perform service and maintenance, said OSHA Area Director Paula Dixon-Roderick, who is based in Marlton. Instead of addressing the cited amputation hazards which led to two serious injuries, the company continues to expose its workers to dangerous machinery. Fieldbrook Foods employs about 200 workers at its Lakewood facility. The company, headquartered in New York, is a subsidiary of Wells Enterprises, which purchased Fieldbrook Foods in 2019 and is headquartered in Iowa. The company produces popular ice cream brands including Halo Top, Blue Bunny, Blue Ribbon and Original Bomb Pop.

New Jersey Frozen Dessert Manufacturer Cited After 2nd Amputation Injury on Same Machine

03/15/21 WorkersCompensation.com Lakewood, NJ (WorkersCompensation.com) - Despite two severe amputation injuries in 2018 and 2020 on the same machine at a Lakewood ice cream manufacturing plant, a recent federal safety and health inspection found the company continues to ignore protocols designed to prevent other workers from suffering similar injuries. A maintenance mechanic lost two fingers while repairing an ice cream wrapper machine. Following a September 2020 investigation, OSHA found that Fieldbrook Foods Corp. willfully failed to shut down and isolate energy to the machine during repair work. The U.S. Department of Labor s Occupational Safety and Health Administration has proposed $237,176 in penalties.
