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) Entry into confined spaces, e.g. holding tanks for storing mixed paste on mezzanine, Paste and Ink Department without a confined space entry program on 9/6/90. Among other methods, one feasible and acceptable abatement method to correct these hazards is to establish and enforce an adequate plant confined space entry procedure such as that stipulated by ANSI Z117.1- 1989. American National Standard for Working in Tanks and other Confined Spaces. Essential elements of this confined space entry procedure would include: 1) Hazard identification. Identify and evaluate each hazard of the permit spaces, including determination of severity; 2) Hazard control. Establish and implement the means, procedures and practices by which the permit spaces can be entered safely; 3) Permit system. Establish a written permit system for the proper preparation, issuance and implementation of entry permits; 4) Employee information. Signs shall be posted near permit spaces to notify employees what hazards may be present and that only authorized entrants may enter the permit spaces; 5) Prevention of unauthorized entry. Prevent unauthorized employee entry through such measures as training or by posting signs and barriers, as necessary; 6) Employee training. Train employees so that attendants, authorized entrants and personel authorizing or in charge or entry can work safely in and around the permit space; 7) Equipment. Provide, maintain and ensure the proper use of the equipment necessary for safe entry, including testing, monitoring, communication and personal protective equipment; 8) Rescue. Ensure that the procedures and equipment necessary to rescue entrants from permit spaces are implemented and provided; 9) Protection from external hazards. Ensure that all pedestrian, vehicle or other barriers necessary to protect entrants from external hazards are provided; 10) Duty to other employers. Ensure that, when an employer, such as a contractor, plans to send employees into a permit space which is under the control of another employer (host employer), the host emploer provides the contractor with available information on permit space hazards; on efforts to comply with this standard; and on any other workplace hazards, safety rules and emergency procedures of which the contractor needs to be aware of.
