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 a struck-by hazard due to:
At this inspection site, failure to install keeper pins/wired in the ears
of crowfoot
connections of compressed air flexible rubber hoses to prevent them from
unintentional parting, at the portable Bobcat air compressor and at the
small
cooling compressor.
Among other methods, one feasible and acceptable abatement method to
correct
this hazard would be to require that keeper pins/wire be installed in each
ear of
the Crowfoot connection prior to each use per manufacturer
recommendations. 0   0   y   0                                                 L
