General-duty citation text

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:
a) Warehouse - The employer did not ensure that all lanyards used with
fall arrest stysems
were marked, as prescribed by the American National Standards Institute,
ANSI Z359.1-
1992, Sections 5.1.3 and 5.2.3, with the part number and model
designation, year of
manufacture, manufacturer's name or logo, capacity rating, standard number
(Z359.1), and
warning to follow the manufacturer's instructions included with the
equipment at time of
shipment from the manufacturer.  Additionally, not all lanyards were
marked with the
material of construction, the length, the need to avoid contact with sharp
edges and abrasive
surfaces, and the need to make only compatible connections.
A feasible means of abatement would be to replace lanyards without the
required markings
with new lanyards with the required markings as required by ANSI
Z359.1-1992.
In accordance with 29 CFR 1903.19(d), abatement certification is required
for this
violation (using the CERTIFICATION OF CORRECTIVE ACTION WORKSHEET),
and in addition, documentation demonstrating that abatement is complete
must be
included with your certification.  This documentation may include, but is
not limited to,
evidence of the purchase or repair of the equipment, photographic or video
evidence of
abatement, or other written records.
