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 the "hazards" associated with the overhead door failure: ESTABLISHMENT/WASTE TREATMENT AREA: The overhead door had the following deficiencies: 1. The spring on the right side of the manually operated overhead door was broken. 2. The Hyster powered industrial truck (PIT) was used to raise/open the overhead door for removal and placement of the sludge container. 3. Two (2) pieces of 4-inch X 4-inch X 9-foot long wooden blocks were placed on both ends to support and keep the overhead door stay open. Among other methods, one feasible and acceptable means to correct the hazard is to: 1. Use the PITs only for the purpose for which they were designed; follow the powered industrial truck manufacturer's/owner's manual recommendations. 2. Replace or repair the overhead door. 3. Conduct frequent inspections and maintenance on the overhead door. 4. Utilize other engineering methods to have mechanical stop and opening the door.
