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employer broke any rule; any findings appear as the citations listed below, and citations can be contested, reduced, or withdrawn.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 to each of his employees conditions of employment and a
place of employment free from recognized hazards that were
causing or likely to cause death or serious physical harm to
employees, in that employees were exposed to: (Reference:
American Society of Mechanical Engineers ASME B30.16-1998)
a)Facility - employees were allowed to lift truck bodies
weighing as much as 5000 pounds using a combination of
mechanical (hand chain) hoists and electrical (wire
rope) and/or chain hoists that (all) had not been
subjected to frequent (monthly) or periodic (yearly)
inspections. (Reference : ASME B30.16-1998, paragraph
16-2.1.1)
b)Facility - employees were allowed to lift truck bodies
weighing as much as 5000 pounds using a combination of
mechanical (hand chain) hoists and electrical (wire
rope) and/or chain hoists that were (all) missing the
safety latch from the load hooks. (Reference: ASME
B30.16-1998, paragraph 16-1.2.9
c)Facility - employees were allowed to lift truck bodies
weighing as much as 5000 pounds using a combination of
mechanical (hand chain) hoists and electrical (wire
rope) and/or chain hoists with unknown capacities (none
of the hoist capacities could be read and/or determined
from the ground). (Reference: ASME B30.16-1998,
paragraph 16-1.1.1)
d)Facility - employees were allowed to lift truck bodies
weighing as much as 5000 pounds using a combination of
mechanical (hand chain) hoists and electrical (wire
rope) and/or chain hoists with none of the required
warnings posted.(Reference: ASME B30.16-1998,
paragraph 16-1.1.4)
Among other methods, some feasible and acceptable abatement
methods to correct this hazard would be to institute a
regular inspection program to identify and correct hoist
deficiencies as they occur and to remove hoists from service
as needed.

North Carolina General Statute 95-129(1) of the Occupational Safety and
Health Act of North
Carolina: The employer did not furnish to each of his employees conditions
of employment and a
place of employment free from recognized hazards that were causing or
likely to cause death or
serious physical harm to employees, in that employees were exposed to:
(Reference: American
National Standard ANSI/ASC Z49.1-1988)
a)Facility - employees were allowed to perform arc welding inside a five
foot
diameter stainless steel tank without the benefit of personal protective
equipment
(PPE) or protective devices to prevent accidental contact with the
positive lead of
the welder, and simultaneous contact with the tank, which would act as
ground,
and created the potential of electrocution. Additional factors creating an
electrocution probability was extremely hot conditions inside the tank,
ideal for
profuse perspiration, as well as the presence of a shallow layer of water
in the
bottom of the tank. (Reference: ANSI/ASC Z49.1-1988, paragraph 11.2.2 and
11.4.9.2; NIOSH publication 77-131; American Welding Society Pamphlet dated
1988, titled ARC Welding Safety; American Federation of State, County and
Municipal Employees (AFL-CIO) Fact Sheet, Health and Safety: Welding
Hazards)
Among other methods, some feasible and acceptable abatement methods to
correct this hazard would be to use mechanical ventilation (to cool the
area
and
evaporate moisture, in addition to PPE and protective equipment such as
rubber
gloves, and a rubber mat on which to stand/kneel.
