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employer broke any rule; any findings appear as the citations listed below, and citations can be contested, reduced, or withdrawn.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 02 1 instance 20 exposed
Issued
Oct 29, 1997
Abate by
Nov 3, 1997
Penalty
Initial $1,000 · Current $500 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 falling loads and/or automotive lift parts:
(a) Auto Service Department: Employees use a Globe Hoist Company, single
post semi-
hydraulic lift, Type 10BS, Serial #96613 to lift automobiles. The
automatic mechanical
fail safe latch device was clogged with grease and did not deploy to hold
the lift in the
fully extended position. Employees were exposed to injury from being
struck by falling
loads and/or lift parts.
Among other methods, one feasible and acceptable means of abatement is to
thoroughly clean
and lubricate the fail-safe latch mechanism so that it deploys
automatically as it was designed
and to inspect this latch on a regular basis for proper function.
No abatement certification or documentation required.tion
