What this inspection record means

OSHA opens inspections for many reasons: routine scheduling under a national or local emphasis program, an employee complaint or referral, or a follow-up after a reported injury.

employees in that
employees were exposed to falls from bridges:

had a
designated 8 ton load limit and the employees were delivering loads of rock
with a total estimated weight of 20-22 tons in a Ford dump truck.
