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 struck-by hazards:
On or about December 3, 2009, and at other times prior thereto, at this
site,
employees working at this retail restaurant were exposed to struck-by
hazards by
the following:
a.The Reach-In Cooler had a defective door hinge which could shift and fall
several inches suddenly when accessed and impact an employee's foot.
Among others, one feasible means of abatement is to operate a substitute
cooler until the original has a door in safe, working order.
b.The Upright-Warmer was leaned up against an adjacent piece of
equipment to prevent it tipping onto an employee from a defective wheel
base.  Among others, one feasible means of abatement is to operate a
substitute warmer until the base can be repaired as plumb so the cabinet
does not lean or tip.
c.In the surrounding parking lot, light poles had severely corroded
foundation hardware, posing a struck-by hazard to employees parking
there and cleaning the lot.  Poles have toppled in the past.  Among others,
one feasible means of abatement is structural assessment and replacement
of all weakened foundation mounting hardware.
d.The restaurant roof structure, sagging from water drain damage under the
overhead air conditioning unit, requires assessment for structure
stability.

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 burn hazards from manually handling hot oil:
On or about December 3, 2009, and at other times prior thereto, at this
site,
employees were exposed to scalding hazards to the hands, feet, and other
parts
of the body.  The employer continued operation of the fryers while the hot
oil

being pulled across an uneven tile floor has been the interim practice.
Among
other methods, one acceptable means to correct this hazard it to provide
and
require the use of a closed pump and filtering system.
