Forever 21 stores in Manhattan and Paramus, NJ, have been cited for safety violations by the Department of Labor’s Occupational Safety and Health Administration, which has proposed $236,500 in penalties, the department said Tuesday.

OSHA inspectors called the company on four repeat violations at the Paramus store, including obstructed exit routes, an unmounted fire extinguisher that was not readily accessible, unsecured stored material and fluorescent lights that had no cover to prevent accidental contact or breakage.

OSHA also issued citations for two repeat violations at the Manhattan store, including obstructed exit routes and fluorescent lights with no covers. An additional citation was issued because the store “was not kept clean and orderly.”
