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employer broke any rule; any findings appear as the citations listed below, and citations can be contested, reduced, or withdrawn.

5(a)(1)

Serious 3 instances 20 exposed

Issued: Mar 27, 2002
Abate by: May 13, 2002

General-duty citation text

29 CFR 1910.5(a)(1): The employer did not provide the employees with a
place of employment which was free
from a recognized hazard.
LOC: a) Maintenance Facility, Powered Overhead Doors (13)
b) Recycling Center, Powered Overhead Doors (11)
c) Transfer Station, Powered Overhead Door (1)
The employees were exposed to a hazard of crushing/death when
entering/exiting through the overhead doors.
Reference: ANSI-A156.8
Comment: Feasible methods of abatement could include: 1) A constant
pressure actuation switch. This would always
be operated in sight of the door so that it could be released and manually
reversed if an obstruction was hit. 2)
Installation of a reversing edge switch. This would allow an automatic
closing control out of sight of the door, but
would immediately reverse the direction of the  door upon striking an
obstruction. A variation of this option would be
the use of photoelectric cells that would reverse the door when an
obstruction was encountered by the beam. 3) A three
button control switch. If the following conditions are met: a) It is
provided
with a permanent placard adjacent to the
switch with the following warning letters at 1/4" high. WARNING- TO
PREVENT ENTRAPMENT DO NOT
START DOOR DOWNWARD UNLESS DOORWAY IS CLEAR. b) The control station and
placard are located
within sight of the doorway. c) Automatic closing controls are not
installed. d) Operator must remain at the control
station and observe the door until the door is fully closed.
