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broke any rule; any findings appear as the citations listed below, and citations can be contested, reduced, or withdrawn.

General-duty citation text
Section 5(a)(1) of the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970: The employer does not furnish employment and a place of employment which are free from recognized hazards that are causing or likely to cause death or serious physical harm to employees in that employees are exposed to the recognized hazard of being struck by falling portions of the hoisted load(s) on overhead hoists. The employer violated this section of the Act on or about March 13, 2003, at various locations: The Dayton 2 ton electric overhead hoist located along the north side of warehouse #2, had a in-operable latch on its load hook, and the hoist was not inspected daily to ensure all safety devices were functioning appropriately. This hoist was utilized to lift and maneuver batteries for powered industrial trucks. Among other methods, one feasible and acceptable abatement method to correct this hazard is to provide a load hook with an operable latch, in accordance with Paragraph 16-2.1.2.10(d) of the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) B30.16-1973, Overhead Hoists. Among other methods, one feasible and acceptable abatement method to correct this hazard is to determine the load rating capacity of the overhead structure on which the hoist is mounted, in accordance with Paragraph 16-2.1.3.6 of the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) B30.16-1973, Overhead Hoists. Among other methods, one feasible and acceptable abatement method to correct this hazard is to perform frequent inspections (daily) of all safety devices to determine malfunctions, in accordance with Paragraph 16-2.2.1.2(b) of the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) B30.16-1973, Overhead Hoists. b)The P & H 250 pound capacity, electric overhead hoist located in the maintenance shop did not have inspections conducted to ensure safe operating conditions. This hoist was utilized for material handling. Among other methods, one feasible and acceptable abatement method to correct this hazard is to determine the load rating capacity of the overhead structure on which the hoist is mounted, in accordance with Paragraph 16-2.1.3.6 of the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) B30.16-1973, Overhead Hoists.
