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employer broke any rule; any findings appear as the citations listed below, and citations can be contested, reduced, or withdrawn.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 unguarded foot treadle and/or pedal:
a)  Employees cut metal sheets on a Niagara Shear.  The
machine foot treadle control is not protected to prevent
accidental actuation by falling or moving objects, or by
someone accidentally depressing it, thus exposing employees
to injury, on or about April 14, 1992.
ABATEMENT NOTE:
Among other methods, one feasible and acceptable abatement method
to correct this hazard is:
1.  To construct a barrier guard over the top of the pedal.
2.  Install a foot treadle locking device.
3.  Remove the foot treadle and use alternative, actuation
device.
b)  Employees use a mechanical Buffalo Ironworker to shear
and punch metal.  The machine foot pedal was not guarded,
thus exposing employees to amputation or crushing injuries
from inadvertent activation of the pedal, on or about April
14, 1992.
ABATEMENT NOTE:
Among other methods, one feasible and acceptable abatement method
to correct this hazard is:
1.  Install a barrier guard over foot pedal.
2.  Install foot control locking device.
3.  Install point of operation guarding on punch.
