According to the CtW labor federation, two workers have been killed at Cintas facilities in recent years while another was scalded over much of his body when a washer overflowed. The Occupational Health and Safety Administration, (OSHA), has found over 170 violations of health and safety standards at Cintas since January 1, 2003. Seventy violations were so grave that they could cause “death or serious physical harm.” OSHA assessed nearly $190,000 in initial penalties and found multiple violations in 31 of the 42 inspections in this time period – a 75% percent rate of failure by Cintas.
