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employer broke any rule; any findings appear as the citations listed below, and citations can be contested, reduced, or withdrawn.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) One employee was observed leaving the scaffold near the port screw of the vessel "Fair Princess" on dry dock No. 4 and was exposed to a fall of approximately 15 feet. The employee crawled over the guardrail and climbed down the corner support post of the scaffold. (b) Employees using the staging located throughout the vessel "Fair Princess" did not have a means of access to the platform but had to crawl over or through the guardrails exposing them to the hazard of falling. (c) Employees accessing the stack from the weather deck on the "Fair Princess" did not have a means to access the ladder provided but instead climbed over the guardrails exposing them to the hazard of falling. Among other methods, one feasible and acceptable abatement method to correct these hazards is to install access ladders so that employees do not have to climb over guardrails.
