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broke any rule; any findings appear as the citations listed below, and citations can be contested, reduced, or withdrawn.

Initial $1,500 · Current $750 Reduced
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) In Bay 3 south of the shop area employees were required to work under
a fully extended
hydraulic front end alignment rack without permanent safety latches,
thereby subjecting
employees to the possibility of being struck by a vehicle or caught
between a vehicle and the
floor if the vehicle rolled off.  A feasible means of correcting the
hazard is to install the safety
latches so as to conform to the specifications, referenced in ANSI "B153.1
Section 3.1.10/1974.
(b) In Bay 2 north and Bay 2 south in the shop area employees were
required to work under
fully extended electric hoists with failed safety locking devices (cables
of ratchets), thereby
subjecting the employees to the possibility of being struck by a vehicle
or caught between a
vehicle and the floor if the hoist mechanically failed. A feasible means
of correcting the hazard
is to conform to the specifications referenced in ANSI "B153.1 Section
3.1.10/1974.
