I started off by stating the waste mangmt and can toss; never got to the too much oxygen part instead was fired. Was told I'm not a good fit for them using words like harassment and intimidation

Your employer could potentially be fined, but one thing to consider is if your employer terminated you in retaliation for your report. For that, you should contact an employment law attorney to discuss your situation in more detail.
