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employer broke any rule; any findings appear as the citations listed below, and citations can be contested, reduced, or withdrawn.

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 falling down the hoistway shaft when the
material hoist car was
not at the landing; struck by the descending car, or caught between the
car  and shaftway
components and/or openings in the gates:
a)Material Hoist Second and Third Floor Landings:  Provisions had not been
made
to prevent the hoistway doors and/or gates from opening while the hoist
car was
not at that level, on or about 5/19/94.
b)Ground Floor Level:  A hoistway door or gate was not installed to
prevent access
to the hoistway shaft, on or about 5/19/94.
c)Second Floor Level:  Hoistway gate had dowels missing creating openings
larger
than two (2) inches, on or about 5/19/94.
d)Third Floor Level:  Hoistway gate had openings larger than two (2)
inches and
was less than sixty-six (66) in height, on or about 5/19/94.
e)Crane-Hoist/Material Hoist Car:  Approval of design, rated load, periodic
inspections and maintenance records were not available, on or about
5/26/94.
Among other nethods, one feasible and available method to correct these
hazards is the
installation of appropriate doors and/or gates at all shaftway floor
openings and to provide the
type of interlocks that prevent the material hoist car from moving when
the doors or gates are
open, and so latched that they cannot be opened from the landing side
unless the material hoist
car is at that landing level.  This hoistway-door interlock system is in
conformance with
American National Standard A10.5-1992, and ANSI/ASME 17.3-1990 and is well
known in
industrial application.
