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employer broke any rule; any findings appear as the citations listed below, and citations can be contested, reduced, or withdrawn.

Seccion 6(a) de la Ley de Seguridad y Salud en el Trabajo de Puerto Rico:

a:
At the outside of the building, an area where maintain the trailers as
storage units: three (3)
employees were observed inside the trailer: where the employer did not
provide a means of
access (stairs). The height from ground to trailer floor level ranged from
46 to 47 1/2 inches.
In one of the trailers, the employee used to access using a scissor
fiberglass
ladder.
Among other methods, feasible and acceptable method to correct this hazard
is that the employer
will provide a means of access, either a fixed ramp where the trailer is
at level;  place the
trailers at ground level; and provide a fixed ladder or movable.
Hazard:  Employees were exposed to falls.
En el exterior del edificio, area en donde mantienen vagones como

(3) empleados dentro del vagon: patrono no le proveyo un medio de acceso
(escalera). La altura
desde el suelo al nivel del piso del vagon fluctuaban entre 46 a 47 1/2
pulgadas. En uno de
vagones, la empleada para accesar utilizo una escalera en fibra de vidrio
tipo tijera.
Entre otros metodos, un metodo factible y aceptable para corregir este
riesgo es que el patrono
les provea un medio de acceso, ya sea una rampa fija en donde el vagon
quede a nivel; colocar
los vagones a nivel del suelo; proveerle una escalera fija o movible.
Riesgo: Empleados expuestos a caidas.os
