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 in that employees were exposed to the hazard of being struck by stuck parts in the event that manufactured parts become stuck in the die during press operations. On or about 12/23/08 a manufactured part became stuck in the die during operation of the 35 ton press. Upon being struck with a hammer, the part ejected unexpectedly injuring 2 employees. One feasible and acceptable method of abatement would be to develop and document procedures to control the unexpected release of a stuck part.
