General-duty citation text
Section 5(a)(1) of the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970: The employer does not furnish employment or a place of employment which are free from recognized hazards of inoperable emergency stops increasing the risk of being caught in unguarded, in-going nip points that are causing or likely to cause death or serious physical harm to employees: The employer does not ensure that emergency stops are operational. This violation was observed on or about April 20, 2009, where the emergency stop button located next to the drum drive wheel machine at Station 22, Line 622 was inoperable. Employees operating the drum drive were exposed to being caught in the in-going nip point between the rotating drive drum wheel and the pipe being rotated. Among other methods, one feasible and acceptable means to abate this hazard is to inspect all emergency stops to ensure that the mechanisms are functional, without deficiencies, in accordance with manufacturer's design and recommendations at all locations where machine operators and others would be working and exposed to moving parts. Pursuant to 29 CFR 1903.19(d), within ten (10) calendar days of the date of this citation, the employer must provide documentation which demonstrates the steps being taken to ensure that all emergency stops are being inspected and maintained.
