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broke any rule; any findings appear as the citations listed below, and citations can be contested, reduced, or withdrawn.

5(a)(1)

Serious Gravity 03 1 instance 1 exposed
Issued
Jan 6, 1997
Abate by
Jan 9, 1997
Penalty
Initial $1,500 · Current $1,150 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 in that
employees were exposed
to the hazard of:
(a) being struck by falling cargo and/or rigging, TUG operators were
observed driving under
cargo loads as soon as there was enough clearance to pass under the cargo
carrier.    The
TUG(s) were not provided with overhead guards to protect the operators
from falling cargo
and/or rigging, on or about 9/25/96.  In the event that removing the TUG
operators  from the
overhead hazard is unavoidable, among other methods, one feasible and
acceptable abatement
method to correct this hazard is to install overhead protective cages on
the TUG(s).   Reference
is made to 29 CFR 1917.43(e)(1)(i) "Powered Industrial Trucks","Overhead
Guard", which
states: "When operators are exposed to overhead hazards, the employer
shall
ensure that fork
lift trucks are equipped with securely attached overhead guards."
