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 were exposed to struck by or crushing injuries. In the production department, employees used a chain hoist with a damaged hook to lift and support the die block and gate of a plastic extruder machine. The tip of the hook was twisted approximately 10from the plane of the hook. The die block could fall causing struck by or crushing injuries to the employee(s). Among other methods, one feasible and acceptable method to correct this hazard is to follow American National Standard, ASME B30.16.1-1998, Safety Standards for Overhead Hoists (Underhung). Certification, and documentation/evidence of abatement is required. Certification of abatement is required by 29 CFR Part 1903 and is to be submitted within ten (10) calendar days after the abatement date.ment
