The company internally had worker safety recommendations that called for wearing a full range of protective gear


Any clue what the PPE is that was recommended?

No, but if you care to dig through the trial documents you may find it. They are rather voluminous as one might expect.

Monsanto Fed Ct docs


It is like the oft used quip, it isn't the crime it is the coverup. Coverups really wake juries up. They will "sleep" though days of expert witness testimony but drop an internal doc or email that suggests foul play was afoot and they pop a boner like they just mainlined viagra.

Or they were just protecting themselves from possible Workmans Comp claims. All companies have exaggerated safety practices for their employees due to this.
It's actually very smart considering how many people just want to sue a large company for a payout.
