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broke any rule; any findings appear as the citations listed below, and citations can be contested, reduced, or withdrawn.

The alleged violations below have been grouped because they involve
similar or related hazards that may increase the potential for injury
resulting from an accident.
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 recognized hazard of electrical shock and burns:
(a)  M/V Polar Queen:  Employees working in the pipe room had
occasion to work near a 110-volt outlet that has reversed
polarity.  This conditions exposed employees to electrical
shock and burns if they came into contact with an ungrounded
tool or electrical appliance using the outlet.
Among other methods, one acceptable and feasible mean of
abatement would be to properly install the outlet in ac-
cordance with National Electrical Code standards.
