What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? CA
I work part time in Santa Monica, CA, at an outdoor kiosk. It is owned by Provenzano Resources, Inc. (PRI) and the company I work for rents one from them.
PRI provides a space heater, as it gets cool in the evening. We are not allowed to put it on the ground. I placed it on a slide-out surface, about 3 1/2 feet up, which slides out like a drawer. It's about the only place to put it.
I wore a ski jacket, as it was cold and rainy. On 2 occasions I got too close, by leaning over it to use our laptop, which we use to ring up sales, and another I do not recall. In doing so, my jacket was melted above the waistline in several places.
The kiosk manager stated he will not do anything. I told my manager, but have not pressed her to follow through.
I think one of them should replace my jacket. Would PRI or my company be responsible?
