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 crushing hazard: (a) Facility, Oakmont, PA: On January 24, 2001 there was no positive blocking device in place to prevent employee hands from entering the pinch point area created between the dump and the dump pit. The hydraulic pump was broken and the hydraulic lines that control the dump were capped off. Among other methods, one feasible and acceptable method to abate this hazard is to repair the wheel dump and prohibit the use of a forktruck to lift the dump when the hydraulic lines are disconnected.
