Penalty
Initial $280.00 · Current $180.00 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:
A) BEING STRUCK BY FALLING LIFT AND SUSPENDED LOAD. THE TWO SINGLE
POST AUTOMOBILE LIFTS LOCATED IN THE REPAIR BAYS ON THE SOUTH
WALL OF THE GARAGE DID NOT HAVE WORKABLE AUTOMATIC MECHANICAL
DEVICES, CAPABLE OF HOLDING THE LIFT AND ITS SUSPENDED LOAD IN
THE FULLY EXTENDED POSITION AS REQUIRED IN ANSI B153.1-1974. THE
LIFT LOCATED ON THE LEFT WAS MISSING THE LOCKING PIN ASSEMBLY AND
THE LIFT ON THE RIGHT WAS MISSING THE ENTIRE MECHANICAL DEVICE
NECESSARY FOR PROPER FUNCTIONING. IN THE EVENT OF HYDRAULIC
FAILURE, THE SAFETY DEVICES WOULD NOT BE CAPABLE OF SUPPORTING
THE SUSPENDED LOAD.
A FEASIBLE AND USEFUL METHODTO CORRECT THIS HAZARD IS TO REPAIR THE
EXISTING SAFETY SUPPORT ON THE LEFT SIDE LIFT AND INSTALL A SAFETY
SUPPORT ON THE RIGHT SIDE LIFT AND CONTINUE TO MAINTAIN THEM SO THAT
THEY ARE ALWAYS IN WORKING ORDER.
