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employer broke any rule; any findings appear as the citations listed below, and citations can be contested, reduced, or withdrawn.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:
a) The Fittings Department number 45 at the cement lining machine turn
table. The turn table is not equipped to handle the weight of the 30
inch fittings. The turn table with the 30 inch fittings had snapped

correct this hazard is to provide an additional lifting mechanism, such
as a hoist, or install a turn table capable of handling the 30 inch
fittings.
