General-duty citation text
NYSLL Article 2, Section 27-a.3.a(1): The employer did not furnish to each of its employees, employment and a place of employment which was free from recognized hazards that are causing or were likely to cause death or serious physical harm to its employees and which will provide reasonable and adequate protection to the lives, safety or health of its employees. Employees were exposed to the hazard of crushing injury or death when entering/exiting through the overhead door. Among other methods, three reasonable and adequate abatement methods to correct the hazard are: (1) A constant pressure actuation switch. This would always be operated in sight so that it could be released and manually reversed before an obstruction was hit. (2) Installation of a reversing edge switch. This would allow an automatic closing control out of sight of the door, but would immediately reverse the direction of the door upon striking an obstruction. A variation to this option would be to use photoelectric cells that would reverse the door when an obstruction was encountered by the beam. (3) A three button control switch. If the following conditions are met: a) It is provided with a permanent placard adjacent to the switch with the following warning letters at least 1/4" high: - WARNING - - TO PREVENT ENTRAPMENT - DO NOT START THE DOOR DOWNWARD UNLESS THE DOORWAY IS CLEAR b) The control station and placard are located within sight of the doorway. c) Automatic closing controls are not also installed. d) Operator must remain at the control station and observe the door until the door is fully closed. The employer recognized that west side doors not reverse, and that other overhead doors on site did have auto reverse switches installed. a.West side garage overhead doors, doors did not have a means to reverse the direction of the door in case of an obstruction.
