General-duty citation text
North Carolina General Statute 95-129(1) of the Occupational Safety and Health Act of North Carolina: The employer did not furnish to each of his employees conditions of 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) being caught between the forklift's frame and the ground in the event the vehicle was up-set or turned over. The operator was not wearing the installed seat belts while operating the Sunbelt Turbo forklift, model SS-644C, s/n 003565. Among other methods, one feasible and acceptable abatement method to correct this hazard was to require the operator to wear the installed seat belts while operating the forklift.
