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 were exposed to: On and prior to 12/11/01, employees were subjected to the hazards of being crushed and/or caught between vessels that were placed on rollers, resulting in fractures, multiple internal injuries, or death. The employer then, without the manufacturer's approval or consent, welded steel plates up against the rollers in an attempt to prevent the bearings from popping out from being overloaded. Among other methods, one feasible and acceptable method to correct the hazard is to contact the manufacturer of the rollers to get the right size bearings to hold the load that is imposed upon them.
