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.

5(a)(1)

Serious Gravity 10 7 instances 25 exposed
Issued
Aug 29, 1997
Abate by
Sep 24, 1997
Penalty
Initial $4,500 · Current $3,000 Reduced
Section 5(a)(1) of Public Law 91-596, 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: Hazard of falls.
.
The following defects were observed on scaffold system:
(a) The scaffolding clamps were not designed by a qualified person.
(b) After fabrication and prior to the use, no testing of scaffolding
clamps took place.
(c) The scaffolding system as used on site was not designed by a qualified
person.
(d) Information relative to the maximum loads which could be placed on the
scaffold or
its components was not provided by the erector to the user.
(e) Inspections of the scaffold by a competent person to determine if
overloading had or
was taking place, were not conducted on a regular or periodic basis.
(f) Employees working on the scaffold were not trained to recognize when
the maximum
intended loads have been achieved and the load carrying capacities of the
scaffold.
(g) Because of the size of the scaffold system, its height above the water
and the fact it
was not suspended or supported but attached to the drilling platform by
field engineered
clamps, the scaffold system should have been certified by a qualified
professional engineer.
One feasible and acceptable method to abate this condition would be to
have the scaffold and its
components designed and tested by a qualified engineer with a written
report available for review
by the Occupational Safety and Health
Administration.         Xr   y   y           &
