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broke any rule; any findings appear as the citations listed below, and citations can be contested, reduced, or withdrawn.

NYSLL Article 2, Section 27(a)(3a)(1):  The employer did not
furnish to each of its employees employment and a place of
employment which were free from recognized hazards that were
causing or were likely to cause death or serious physical harm to
its employees and which will provide reasonable and adequate
protection to the lives, safety or health of its employees.
a)  HEOL of Rensselaer County Highway Department were exposed to
the hazard of being infected with the rabies virus through
possible direct contact with saliva of potentially rabid animals
(such as raccoons and dogs) being introduced into open cuts or
wounds in the skin or via mucous membranes.  In applying this
paragraph, fundamental distinctions between private and public
employment were recognized.
Reasonable and adequate abatement methods for reducing this
hazard, among others, are:
a)  Training:  A comprehensive training program including proper
handling practices, personal protective equipment, the etiology
and modes of transmission of the disease, decontamination and
avoidance of animal/saliva contact.  Training shall be provided
