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broke any rule; any findings appear as the citations listed below, and citations can be contested, reduced, or withdrawn.

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)  In the front foundry, the air compressor/water room had
extensive portions of its wall damaged  and missing, including a 16
to 57 inch in height by 12 feet in length section of the south
wall, a 4 feet in height by 2 feet in length section on the east
side and a 6 feet in height by 3 feet in length section at the
northwest corner, which exposed employees to struck type hazards.
Among other methods, a feasible and acceptable method to correct
this hazard is have the concrete block wall repaired with
equivalent materials and by installing posts or railings to prevent
powered industrial trucks from striking the wall.
