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 the hazard of being crushed by scrap or by a part of the equipment: On May 11, 2009, an employee was injured by scrap metal projecting from and/or ejected from the grapple of the Caterpillar 321B LCR Excavator after entering the immediate surrounding area which was not blocked off or guarded to prevent accidental entry into the area. Feasible means to abate this hazard include, but are not limited to, the following: 1.Development, implementation and enforcement of workplace safety policies for operations in the yard, including, at a minimum, keeping other employees away from the hydraulic excavator when it is operating and/or prohibiting the operation of the hydraulic excavator when there is a need for other employees to be on foot performing job duties in the yard. 2.Guarding the area surrounding the hydraulic excavator with a barrier guard in such a way that it prevents the entry of workers into the radius of the swing of the boom and grapple plus the longest scrap extended from the grapple. 3.Training all operators of the hydraulic excavator to be sure that the load in the lifting device, e.g. grapple, is well secured and properly balance before it is lifted more that a few inches.
