General-duty citation text
HAR 12-60-2(a)(3) was violated because: Rotary Hydraulic Lift, model SPOA9-200, serial number AFM98C1068, was actively being used even though it had a broken release cable for its locking mechanism. A screwdriver was placed into the locking mechanism to keep the lift's lock in an unlock position. Bypassing the locking mechanism allowed employees to be exposed to potential serious injuries. 12-60-2(a)(3) states "Every employer shall provide safe work places and practices by elimination or reduction of existing or potential hazards. Elimination of existing or potential hazards by design, process substitution, or other appropriate methods is preferred because it eliminates the need for further employee protection. When elimination is not feasible, reduction of existing or potential hazards to acceptable levels, using methods such as engineering or administrative controls, isolation, or guarding, shall be promptly used. When these methods are inadequate to reach acceptable levels, personal protective equipment shall be provided and used." Location: Automotive shop at 94-709 Farrington Highway
