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. Opening or conducting an inspection is not itself an allegation or a finding that this employer broke any rule; any findings appear as the citations listed below, and citations can be contested, reduced, or withdrawn.

Abate by

Penalty
Initial $525 · Current $263 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)Employees were exposed to a fall hazard of approximately 8 feet once
they access
the work platforms located on the sides of cement mixer trucks.  The
entrance to
the work platform is left unguarded.
Among other feasible and acceptable methods to correct this hazard would
be to;
install a chain or other mechanically strong material across the entrance
opening
to the work platform. This chain or other mechanically strong material
would be
left in the open position while employees access the work platform.  Once
the
employees gain access to the work platform, the chain or other mechanically
strong material would be secured in the closed position.  Another feasible
method
for guarding this open side would be to install a swinging gate which
could be
secured in the open position while employees access the work platform.
Once
employees gain access to the work platform, the swinging gate can be
secured in
the closed position.
Abatement verification is required for this violation.  The abatement
certification sheet is enclosed with the citation(s).n
