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 working with or around the mold hoists were exposed to the hazard of falling molds or other items that may be lifted by the hoists due to hook failure: a)The saddle of the hook on the molding line hoist was worn approximately 20 to 25 percent. ASME/ANSI Standard B30.10 HOOKS, paragraph 10-1.4.6 (a) states that hooks shall be removed from service when they experience wear exceeding 10of the original sectional dimension. Among other methods, one feasible and acceptable method of abatement is to replace the hook. Certification, and documentation/evidence of abatement is required. Certification of abatement is required by 29 CFR Part 1903 and is to be submitted within ten (10) calendar days after the abatement date.
