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broke any rule; any findings appear as the citations listed below, and citations can be contested, reduced, or withdrawn.

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

employees in that employees
were exposed to hand and finger amputation injuries:
(a) Mon Valley Recycling warehouse area, 5 ton Shear: On or about 05/05/06
employees were operating the shear, cutting metal piping and they were
activating
the controls by using foot pedals that were not guarded to prevent
accidental
