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 the employees were exposed to the hazard of being crushed by the Clark propane powered industrial forklift truck in the event of a tip over accident. A seat belt was not provided for the operators of the Clark propane powered industrial truck that was being used to load and unload trucks and to move crates around the shop. The employee was exposed to the hazards of being crushed by potential roll-over action of the fork truck. Among other methods, one feasible and acceptable method to correct this hazard would be to install a seat belt on the Clark fork truck and to enforce the requirement that the operators use the seat belts. DISCLAIMER 1. You are not limited to the abatement methods suggested above. 2. The methods explained are general and may not be effective in all cases. 3. The employer is responsible for selecting and carrying out an appropriate method of abatement.
