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employer broke any rule; any findings appear as the citations listed below, and citations can be contested, reduced, or withdrawn.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 a place of employment which was free from recognized hazards which
were likely to
cause death or serious physical harm to employees in that, employees were
exposed to
hazards associated with improper storage and handling of granite and stone
slabs:
a)  On or about March 30, 2010 and at times prior, employees were exposed
to crushed-by
and struck-by injuries while they worked with and around improperly stored
granite and
stone slabs in the following manner:
1)  The employer did not develop and implement a stone slab handling
program and
effectively train employees in safe procedures for transporting, loading
and unloading, and
storing slabs.
2)  Employees worked with and around slabs which were overloaded on
A-frames
and racks
and were not secured with straps or some other method.  Employees worked
within the fall
shadow of the outer slabs.
3)  Employees worked near a large waste pile of stone slab pieces which
were vertically
stacked to a height of almost 6 feet.  The pile weighed hundreds of pounds
and was unsteady
and leaning.
4)  Employees worked around stone slabs that were leaning against the shop
walls and were
not secured in any way.  These slabs could have slid or been knocked over.
5)  Employees who used a forklift to move slabs did not receive training
and certification in
the use of the forklift.
Among other methods, feasible and acceptable abatement methods to correct
the hazards
would be to implement the requirements of the Marble Institute of
America's
"Safety in the
Stone Business" technical guide or the OSHA Safety and Health Information
Bulletin
"Hazards of Transporting, Unloading, Storing and Handling Granite, Marble
and Stone
Slabs".  Both documents recommend formation of a plan for stone handling
and storage and
provide methods which can be utilized to safely handle stone.
