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 employees were exposed to electrical shock, struck by and fall hazards: Employees working from elevated scissor lifts in the fabrication area of the facility were exposed to electrical shock, struck-by and fall hazards while replacing and or preforming maintenance on the facility lighting system. Procedures had not been developed or implemented to protect employees while working from an elevated lift such as, but not limited to: locking out overhead crane, placing warning beacon on scissors lift, or coordinating maintenance activities with production. Employees were exposed to coming into contact with unguarded energized electrical conductors or struck by crane movement, creating approximately twenty-foot fall hazards. AMONG OTHER METHODS, ONE FEASIBLE AND ACCEPTABLE METHOD TO CORRECT THIS HAZARD IS: Establish local procedure, inform and train employees on the special precautions to be taken whenever working in the same area as moving equipment per ANSI standard 92.6-1990, section 8.10.2 "Warnings such as, but not limited locking out the crane, flags or roped off areas, flashing lights, and barricades shall be used". 29 CFR 1903.19(c)(1) requires certification that the abatement of the above violation is completed.
