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broke any rule; any findings appear as the citations listed below, and citations can be contested, reduced, or withdrawn.

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:
Employees working with, and in the vicinity of, suspended loads were
exposed to the hazard of
being struck by falling loads due to jib crane and hoist, or pressure
gripping lifter (plate clamp)
failure. Employees were exposed to the hazard of falling loads in that
pressure gripping lifters
(plate clamps) were not being inspected on a frequent and periodic basis
and clamps with
undetected faults remained in service. Employees were further exposed to
the hazard of falling
loads in that hoists and jib cranes were not being inspected on a frequent
basis, and hoists or jib
cranes were in service with undetected faults or unsafe conditions.
Among others, feasible and acceptable methods to correct this hazard would
be
to implement
inspection and maintenance programs which comply with the provisions of

Engineers) B30.20
safety standard for Below-The-Hook Lifting Devices, and with provisions of
ANSI B30.11 the
