Why aren't the sprinker systems working in these warehouses? This is a huge osha violation
Supposedly the guy who filmed it did it tactically. He set small fires and let the fire suppression system run out of water then set larger fires. Not sure about all the other ones.
I've been wondering about this the entire goddamn time. What a liability lol
Why would they be working?
That's the truly heinous crime being committed here - putting workers at risk of direct death by lack of fire safety (on top of regular worker abuse).
I think you're missing the point, think of the profits.
It's probably not very profitable to lose the entire warehouse and its contents to an easily preventable fire, either.
