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 falling load hazards: Hite-Line area and Trolley Room - Employees were exposed to hazards of being struck by an overloaded hoist. Frequent and periodic inspections have not been performed on the 2-Ton Dayton, 2-Ton CM, and 1/2-Ton Dayton overhead hoists. Among other methods, one method of abating this hazard would be to perform frequent and periodic inspections as recommended by ANSI B30.16-1973, Overhead Hoist, 16-2.2.1. Inspections include, but are not limited to, controls and operating mechanisms for improper operations; safety devices for malfunctions; deterioration or leakage in air systems; and, deformations, chemical damage, or cracks in hooks. 29 CFR 1903.19(c)(1) requires certification that the abatement of the above violation is completed.
