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 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 struck-by/crushing hazard of a tractor trailer being operated in reverse: a)landfill site - employee of Bowen Company was operating his tractor trailer in reverse, toward the dump face, without an operable external audible warning signal device on his vehicle, while employees of other mobile refuse companies were in the immediate area [ref. ANSI Z245.1-1992, Section 7.1.15.2(a)]. One feasible and acceptable method of abatement, among others, to correct this hazard is to ensure that all vehicles be equipped with operable back-up alarm systems, which can sound an alarm that can be clearly heard over the background noise present in all work environments in which the vehicles enter.es
