1960.8 A

Serious Gravity 03 1 instance 2 exposed
Issued
Abate by
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 likely to cause death or serious harm to employees in that
employees were exposed
to crushing hazards: ANSI Z245.2 1997 (Stationary Compactor Safety
Requirements)
requires that any loading chamber access door shall have an interlock
system that prevents
cycling motion while the access door is open.
a) Philadelphia Financial Center - On August 24, 2007 and on August 27,
2007, two
employees were directed to enter into the "charge box" of the Marathon
Trash
Compactor in the attempt to retrieve missing social security checks which
were
thought to have been inadvertently thrown away.  The machine was not
equipped with
an interlock device which would have prevented the machine from cycling
while the
access door was opened.
AMONG OTHER METHODS, ONE FEASIBLE AND ACCEPTABLE
ABATEMENT METHOD TO CORRECT THIS HAZARD WOULD BE TO
EQUIP THE ACCESS DOOR ON THE MARATHON TRASH COMPACTOR
WITH AN INTERLOCK SYSTEM.
NOTE: ABATEMENT CERTIFICATION REQUIRED
