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employer broke any rule; any findings appear as the citations listed below, and citations can be contested, reduced, or withdrawn.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 $375 · Current $188 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 the
employees were exposed to:
(a) Employees were exposed to a potential crushing hazard while working
near the
manually operated manlifts in the main elevator and the Shannard elevator
due to the
lack of guardrails around the base of each manlift.  Among other methods,
one
feasible and acceptable method to correct this hazard would be to install
a guardrail
with an entrance gate at each manlift.
(b) Employees were exposed to a potential fall hazard while operating the
manually
operated manlifts due to the lack of a midrail on the car enclosure.
Among other
methods, one feasible and acceptable means of abatement would be to
install
an
additional chain which would serve as a midrail on each manlift.
