Petition: Expose Phoenix Lumber Co.’s Deadly Workplace Violations and Demand Safety Reform Now!

Phenix Lumber Co., labeled as one of America’s deadliest workplaces, has a shocking track record of safety violations and tragic worker fatalities. Despite being cited by OSHA for over 180 safety infractions and fined millions, this Alabama-based mill operated under a cloud of danger. Workers faced horrific conditions, leading to deaths, dismemberment, and serious injuries, with one employee’s remains weighing only 23 pounds after a fatal accident. Sign the petition now!

The U.S. Department of Labor has noted the facility’s severe negligence, yet Phenix Lumber has managed to skirt significant penalties, including a reduced fine from $1.9 million to $300,000 in 2011. Even after multiple workers lost their lives, including Brandon Vandyke in 2020, the company has avoided real consequences, prioritizing profits over safety.

This mill’s owners, among the wealthiest in eastern Alabama, have repeatedly ignored safety protocols, directly resulting in worker deaths and injuries. In one gruesome incident, a maintenance supervisor was literally torn apart by machinery, his body found in pieces. Sign the petition now!

Now, with the company filing for bankruptcy, escaping liability seems possible. It’s time to stand up against such gross neglect. Sign the petition now to demand a thorough federal investigation and hold Phenix Lumber’s owners accountable for their deadly disregard. Your signature can help ensure no other worker has to pray for survival as part of their daily job.
