LERIO CORP DBA IEM PLASTICS

According to U.S. Department of Labor enforcement records, LERIO CORP DBA IEM PLASTICS — a industry sector 00 facility located at 606 WALTERS STREET, REIDSVILLE, NC 27320 — was the subject of a formal OSHA inspection that resulted in 36 citation(s) and cumulative proposed penalties of $7,760.00. The inspection case was opened on 1997-03-18.

The volume of citations issued during this inspection suggests systematic compliance deficiencies rather than isolated incidents. Facilities with 10 or more citations typically face comprehensive abatement requirements and may be subject to follow-up inspections.

State Context: Within NC, this facility's penalty places it at the 96th percentile among 88,256 inspected facilities. The statewide average penalty is $1,699.39.

Citation Analysis: The inspection produced 36 citations spanning 8 distinct OSHA regulatory standards. The citation breakdown includes: 3 repeat — A substantially similar violation was found during a previous inspection and the original citation has become a final order. 11 serious — A workplace hazard that could cause death or serious physical harm exists, and the employer knew or should have known about the condition. 1 other-than-serious — The violation has a direct relationship to job safety and health but is unlikely to cause death or serious physical harm.

Enforcement Timeline: Citations were issued beginning May 28, 1997 with the latest abatement deadline set for June 29, 1998. Of the 36 total citations, 12 (33%) have been marked as abated in DOL records, which may indicate ongoing compliance gaps requiring further regulatory attention.

Penalty Assessment: The total proposed penalty of $7,760.00 falls within OSHA's standard enforcement range and may have been adjusted through informal settlement conference procedures, penalty reduction factors, or good faith credit for demonstrated safety and health management systems.
