What this inspection record means

OSHA opens inspections for many reasons — routine scheduling under a national or local emphasis program, an employee complaint or referral, or a follow-up after a reported injury. Opening or conducting an inspection is not itself an allegation or a finding that this employer broke any rule; any findings appear as the citations listed below, and citations can be contested, reduced, or withdrawn.

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 2nd degree burns and laceration hazards:
Servers Area:  On March 2nd, 2010, an employee was preparing a fresh pot
of coffee utilizing
an industrial coffee maker, when all indicating lights on the machine
indicated that brewing cycle
was complete the employee removed the cone that was still full of hot
coffee.  The employee
sustained a second degree burns to her hand and arm. At the time of the
injury the metal filter
was not properly cleaned and was clogged preventing the brewed coffee to
properly drain into
the coffee pot.
One feasible and acceptable method to correct the hazard is to provide
training on the industrial
coffee machine and explain what the function lights mean, how to properly
clean the machine,
and hazards associated with the coffee maker to all the employees who
utilizes it.lizes
