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broke any rule; any findings appear as the citations listed below, and citations can be contested, reduced, or withdrawn.

North Carolina General Statute 95-129(1) of the Occupational Safety and
Health Act of North
Carolina: 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:
a)the hazard of being struck by/run over by utility trailer. The employer
did not
adequately train employees in the recognition and avoidance of unsafe
conditions
and require that employees ride in the truck cab and not ride on the
attached
trailer or truck rear bumper and tailgate, prior to and on February 21,
2002.
Among other methods, one feasible and acceptable abatement would be to
establish a well defined company policy with disciplinary procedures that
required
employees to ride in the truck cab and not ride on equipment that was not
designed or intended for that purpose.
