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employer broke any rule; any findings appear as the citations listed below, and citations can be contested, reduced, or withdrawn.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 an injury from an unintended activation of a foot pedal not
protected by a guard:
(a)  Stair Shop - Employees operate a Ekstrom Carlson radial
arm saw, model number  606, no  serial  number, to  cut
wood stair treads.  No  means  was  provided to protect
the foot pedal from unintended activation by falling or
moving objects or by someone accidently stepping on it,
on or about September 29, 1992.
Among other methods, one feasible and acceptable abatement method to
correct this hazard is to replace the missing foot pedal guard.

operators and other employees from hazards created by:
(a)  Stair Shop - Employees operate a Ekstrom Carlson radial
