General-duty citation text

North Carolina General Statue 95-129(1) of the Occupational Safety and
Health Act of North Carolina:  The
employer did not furnish to each of his employees  condition of 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)Vehicles used to transport employees shall have seats firmly secured and
adequate for the number
of employees to be carried.  Seat belts and anchorages meeting
requirements of 49 CFR Part 571
(Department of Transportation, Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards)
shall be installed in all
vehicles.  Lack of seats and seat belts is the proximate cause of the
deaths of Mr. Rafael Gamaz,
and Mr. Fransisco Sanchez, as well as the injuries of Mr. Ruben Rivera.
Among other methods, one feasible and acceptable abatement method is to
install a seat and seat
belt for each worker to be transported in the bed of the truck thus
protecting workers from falling
or jumping off the truck at highway speeds.
