General-duty citation text
N.J.S.A. 34:6A-33(a): The employer did not provide the employees with a place of employment which was free from recognized hazards. LOC: Receiving Area, Overhead Garage Door There existed a hazard of crushing injury/death when entering/exiting through the overhead garage door. Comment: Some methods of abatement would include (as set forth in ANSI standard A156.8) and the following: 1. A constant pressure actuation switch. This would always be operated in sight of the door so that it could be released and manually reversed if an obstruction was hit. 2. Installation of a reversing edge switch. This would allow an automatic closing control out of sight of the door, but would immediately reverse the direction of the door upon striking an obstruction. A variation to this option would be the use of photoelectric cells that would reverse the door when an obstruction was encountered by the beam. OR 3. A three-button control switch. If the following conditions are also met: (a) It is provided with a permanent placard adjacent to the switch with the following warning letters at least 1/4" high: WARNING TO PREVENT ENTRAPMENT DO NOT START DOOR DOWNWARD UNLESS DOORWAY IS CLEAR (b) The control station and placard are located within sight of the doorway. (c) Automatic closing controls are not also installed. (d) Operator must remain at the control station and observe the door until the door is fully closed.
