General-duty citation text
Labor and Employment Article, Section 5-104(a): 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: (a)Date of Violation:08/16/01 Location:Bake Shop Condition:Employees were exposed to heat in excess of the levels recommended in the 1999 edition of the ACGIH TLV's and BEI's. Employees were exposed to a 1-hour time-weighted average of 82.3$F WBGT, and the recommended level for moderate work is 80$F WBGT. Among other methods, one feasible and acceptable abatement method to correct this hazard is to to allow short hourly breaks in an air-conditioned area and/or provide employees with a variety of apparel to help the body stay cool, such as soakable headbands and bandanas, body cooling jackets or vests. Abatement documentation (photographs, receipts, copies of programs, training certification, etc.) is required for this item.
