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.

General-duty citation text

Section 5(a)(1) of the Occupational Safety & 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 drowning from the front end loader rolling overboard into the
water.  An employee
was operating a Cat loader, moving excavated materials on the flat deck
barge on Boston
Harbor.:
Jobsite:
The open deck barge did not have a protective barrier to prevent the
loader from rolling
overboard.
Among other methods one feasible and acceptable abatement method to
correct this hazard is
to install physical barriers along the barge edge to prevent the loader
from going overboard.
