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 the hazard of excessive airborne concentrations of enzyme dusts which can cause occupational asthma, emphysema and sensitization reactions: a) A tablet press operator was exposed to a calculated enzyme dust concentration of 12.45 mg/m3 based on a total dust level of 40.68 mg/m3 and 31% composition Digesdyne. Air monitoring was conducted for 468 minutes on 12/1/89. b) A capsule press operator was exposed to a calculated enzyme dust concentration of 0.88 mg/m3 based on a total dust level of 6.15 mg/m3 and 14% composition Mucozyme. Air monitoring was conducted for 240 minutes on 12/1/89. Methods of abatement include, but are not limited to: -Implement engineering and/or work practice controls to reduce exposures to enzyme dusts to 0.00006 mg/m3 or the lowest feasible level to eliminate physical reactions. -Establish a regulated area to limite exposure potential. Limit access to persons trained and protected from the hazards of enzyme dusts. -Make available a medical evaluation for any employee who has developed signs and symptoms indicating possible overexposure to enzyme dusts. -Provide information and training on the physical and health hazards of enzyme dusts; identify product formulations containing enzyme dusts; and, describe measures to protect employees from exposure. -Ensure labeling with appropriate hazard warning of all incoming materials and in-house mixed powder batches containing enzyme powders.
