Page 12 February 18, 2016 EL SEGUNDO HERALD Police Reports from page 3 Economy from page 3 Los Angeles County, with a $1 trillion economy, drew 169 inspections last year. Agents reportedly found 95 percent of businesses they checked were out of compliance with the law. Restaurants, garment factories, manufacturing, car washes and automotive businesses were cited and fined the most. Agents found violations in those businesses 100 percent of the time. An inspection at one Los Angeles garment factory led to citations for exposing workers to finger and hand amputations. The employees installed rivets onto pants using a machine with an exposed flywheel and no safety guards, the task force reported. Agents also cited the factory for failing to carry workers’ compensation, not paying minimum wage or overtime and not providing workers with an itemized wage statement. Misclassification of employees as independent contractors is a huge problem in the state. California estimates it loses $7 billion a year in payroll taxes because employers underreport staffing. Five women who worked for a San Francisco house-cleaning business turned in their boss in October for not paying overtime and for making them skip lunches and rest breaks. The Labor Commissioner’s office uncovered numerous violations and ordered the house-cleaning business to pay nearly $50,000 in back wages to the five women. Labor Commissioner Julie Su fined the business $17,384 in an enforcement order announced Feb. 10. Reports of labor law and other violations by businesses suspected in the underground economy can be made by calling 855-297-5322 or emailing LETF@dir.ca.gov. California’s whistleblower laws protect employees who report suspected illegal activities in the workplace. • from the 2200 block of East Imperial Highway.

H-24990 was left in a purse or bag, a pillbox, or on a counter or nightstand,” says McAllister. “It only takes a moment for children to find and swallow medication that can put their lives in danger. Parents and grandparents can protect the lives of the children they love by ensuring that all prescription and over-thecounter medicines in their homes are stored safely and securely.” Families, and grandparents specifically, should consider the following steps to ensure their medications are not available to their grandchildren: • Keep medication up high and out of sight of children. The orange bottle medications usually come in is bright and appealing to children. To them it may look like a toy that makes noise when shaken, or a fun game with pieces that can easily go straight into their mouth. • Be absolutely sure the bottle is closed and secure with the safety lock. With a regular schedule of taking meds, it may be tempting for seniors to leave bottle tops loose for easy access each time the medicine needs to be taken. • Lock up your medication in a designated spot. Med-Master offers a variety of durable, flexible medication storage solutions that feature locking options including a 3-digit combination lock, or a wireless battery operated RFID lock, to maximize security. In addition to being a locking storage unit, once opened, options include a pill-sorting tray for organization, a magnifying glass with LED light for easy label reading, as well as a magnetic dry erase kit for important reminders and notes. • (BPT) - It is no secret that grandparents play an important role in the lives of their grandchildren. From giving encouragement and life advice, to helping out as a caretaker, many turn to their grandparents for support. In fact, 72 percent of grandparents take care of their grandchildren on a regular basis, and 70 percent of them see their grandchildren at least once a week, according to the American Grandparents Association. With an abuandance of grandparents overseeing their grandchildren on an ongoing basis, it is particularly important they are aware of the dangers that lie within their household that may be harmful to children. One of the most common dangers includes leaving out medication that is easy to access. In fact, in three out of four emergency room visits for medicine poisoning, the child got into medicine belonging to a parent or grandparent, according to Safe Kids World Wide, a global organization dedicated to preventing unintentional injuries in children. Rallie McAllister, MD, MPH, a family physician in Lexington, Kentucky, and coauthor of The Mommy MD Guide to the Toddler Years, encourages conversation, awareness and education-surrounding children’s home safety. McAllister says that each year in the U.S., thousands of children are seen in emergency departments for accidental medication exposures, which can be fatal. The typical scenario involves a curious child finding and ingesting unsecured medication. “In almost 40 percent of cases, the medication belonged to a grandparent, and the medication Like Us on Facebook Follow Us on Twitter @heraldpub
