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employer broke any rule; any findings appear as the citations listed below, and citations can be contested, reduced, or withdrawn.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 struck by hazards:
A.) On or about 9/23/08, employee were using a spreader bar on a hoist
that had not been rated
for its approved load, tested or marked for its intended load. Maintenance
employees fabricated
the attachment on site but the employer did not assure its testing or
marking. Employees use the
bar to lift scrim rolls onto the airlay line.
B.) On or about 9/23/08, employees were using a hook that was missing a
pin for lifting and
retrieving water jet equipment (that is typically stored outside) and
press equipment. The hook
had not been inspected and/or taken out of service.
Among other methods, one feasible and acceptable abatement method to
correct
this hazard is
to ensure the hook and spreader bar are proof testing, inspected and/or
marked in accordance
with ASME B30.20-2006, Below-the-hook Lifting Devices.
