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: a) Inadvertent activation of the cement mixer while an employee is inside cleaning it. Among other methods, one feasible and acceptable abatement method to correct this hazard is to estabish and enforce an adequate plant lockout procedure such as that stiuplated by ANSI Z244.1-1982, Sections 4 and 5, American National Standard of Minimum Safety Requirements for Lockout/ Tagout of Energy Sources for Personnel Protection. Essential elements of the lockout procedure would include: 1) Open and lock out the mixer control switch; 2) Provide each potentially exposed employee with a separate lock and key to place on the lockout means; 3) Establish a written lockout policy, including procedures to be followed and training for any affected employees and others in the area: 4) Periodically evaluate the program and strictly enforce all of its provisions.
