Section 5(a)1 of the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970:
The employer did not furnish to each of his employees 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 and
crushed by hazards:
On or about 10/05/05, at the Shore Development located in Plantation Key,
Florida an employee
was exposed to the hazards of falling and being crushed by a front end
loader arm while working
from the arm of a John Deere front end loader, model 444J.
Among other methods, one feasible and acceptable abatement method to
correct this hazard is
to prohibit employees from using a loader to elevate personnel as noted in
the Operator's
Manual, specifically, " Never use the loader to lift people".
PLEASE NOTE: DOCUMENTATION AND CERTIFICATION OF ABATEMENT IS
REQUIRED FOR THIS VIOLATION.
