​Worried BWI workers file more safety charges against airport contractor

Workers at BWI continue to report feeling unsafe and have filed a second round of charges with the Maryland Occupational Safety and Health (MOSH) alleging that their employer has again violated safety regulations. Reggie Adams, a jetway maintenance worker says he doesn’t have a tie-off to connect his harness to while on a bridge up to 25 feet off the ground or while climbing an unstable ladder. “I’ve been afraid to fall off, especially when I’m right on the edge. I’ve never been trained on what to do when I fall, guess I’ll just pray on my way down,” Adams said. “I need my job, but I can’t keep risking my life to do it.” Adams works for Menzies Aviation, whose workers say that the company has yet to completely fix all of the MOSH violations reported in April and fined for in August. Baltimore City Councilman Bullock rallied with workers at the BWI contractor headquarters on Wednesday.
