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broke any rule; any findings appear as the citations listed below, and citations can be contested, reduced, or withdrawn.

Section 5(a)(1) of th Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970:  The
employer did not
furnish to each of his employees employement and a place of employment

serious physical harm
to employees in that employees were exposed to the hazard of being crushed
by falling loads,
blocks and cables due to unapproved hoist mechanisms used in the overhead
cranes:

fabrication shop were
equipped with winches that were not designed to be used in overhead cranes
and did not
