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broke any rule; any findings appear as the citations listed below, and citations can be contested, reduced, or withdrawn.

5(a)(1)

Serious Gravity 02 1 instance 1 exposed
Issued
Oct 27, 2003
Abate by
Nov 14, 2003
Penalty
Initial $1,000 · Current $550 Reduced
Section 5(a)(1) of the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970:  The
employer did not
furnish employment and a place of employment which were free from
recognized hazards that
were causing or likely to cause death or serious physical harm to
employees in that employees
were exposed to:
On the East side of the job site, an employee was exposed to the movement
of the counter
weight of a track-hoe after entering the swing radius (immediate
surrounding area) of the
machine which was not blocked off or guarded to prevent accidental entry
into the area.
Among other methods, three feasible and acceptable abatement methods to
correct this hazard
are:
1. The area surrounding the excavator/track hoe can be guarded with a
barrier guard attached
to the vehicle in such a way that it extends beyond the swinging
body/counter weight preventing
entry of workers to this radius of the machine.
2. Barricade a designated portion of the working area of the roadway where
the track hoe will
be working making the area "off limits" to personnel.
3. Use of a safety monitor designated to monitor the immediate area around
the track hoe while
in operation. If this method is to be used additional training of both
designated safety monitor
and potentially exposed employees would be required.
