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broke any rule; any findings appear as the citations listed below, and citations can be contested, reduced, or withdrawn.

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 crushing hazards
associated with
failing to properly use seatbelt restraint devices while operating powered
industrial trucks

lifts
to wear provided seat belts when operating these vehicles.
(b)  Develop and implement a disciplinary action program and procedures to
ensure that employees wear seat belts while operating these vehicles.
(c)  Take precautions with regards to the vehicles to prevent an accident
from
happening including but not limited to, ensuring all vehicle operators are
trained
in the safe operation of the vehicle.
(d)  Ensure that if a seatbelt retrofit kit is available through the fork
truck
manufacturer it is installed on the vehicle.
Abatement certification and abatement documentation is required for this
violation. The
documentation should include written verification of abatement, applicable
measurements
or monitoring results, and photographs or videos which you believe will be
helpful. The
abatement certification sheet is enclosed with the citations.
