What this inspection record means

OSHA opens inspections for many reasons: routine scheduling under a national or local emphasis program, an employee complaint or referral, or a follow-up after a reported injury. Opening or conducting an inspection is not itself an allegation or a finding that this employer broke any rule; any findings appear as the citations listed below, and citations can be contested, reduced, or withdrawn.

General-duty citation text

Section 5(a)(1) of the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970:  The
employer did not furnish employment and a place of employment which were
free from recognized hazards that were causing or likely to cause death
or serious physical harm to employees in that employees were exposed to:
On or before 1/13/86, employees were exposed to the hazards of broken
bones, concussion and death since they were required to climb stacked
bales of stock in excess of 10' in height in order to count inventory.
A feasible and useful means of abatement is to:
1) Stack bales such that adequate aisles are maintained thereby
inventory from the floor.
2) Where inventory cannot be taken from the floor, a lifting platform or
ladder shall be used.  The ladder may be leaned against the rear wall
but not against the bales.
3) Employees shall be prohibited from climbing the stacks of bales.
4) Stacker and inventory personnel shall be trained in the procedure
which is adopted.
