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broke any rule; any findings appear as the citations listed below, and citations can be contested, reduced, or withdrawn.

Penalty
Initial $1,275 · Current $765 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 a fall hazard:
(a)Station 7, A Line Assembly - An employee used a 6-foot fiber glass step
ladder to access the
top of an air handling unit, 7 feet 9 inches high.  The employee had to
stand on the top cap
and top step of the ladder to reach the top of the air handling unit.  The
ladder manufacturer's
label indicated the highest standing level as 3 feet 10 inches, on or
about June 6, 2005.
Among other methods, one feasible and acceptable abatement method to
correct this hazard includes
using a ladder of sufficient height which does not require an employee to
step or stand higher than the
step or rung indicated on the manufacturer's label marking the highest
standing level of the ladder and
which does not require an employee to step or stand on the top cap or top
step
of a step ladder as
specified in the American National Standard for Ladders - Portable
Reinforced Plastic - Safety
Requirements (ANSI A14.5-2000), Section 9.3.2 Climbing and Working
