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broke any rule; any findings appear as the citations listed below, and citations can be contested, reduced, or withdrawn.

Abate by

Penalty
Initial $2,400 · Current $1,560 Reduced
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 hazards of fall, struck-by and crushed-by:
a)  On or about 03/16/11, and times prior thereto,  an employee was
operating
a Toyota forklift, model# 42-6fgcu25, s/n:  70938, to load and unload semi-
trailers.  The employer did not ensure that employees operating powered
industrial trucks use seatbelts, exposing employees to the hazard of
falling out of
and being struck by the powered industrial truck.
Among other methods, one feasible and acceptable abatement method to
correct this hazard
would be to require the use of the seat belt in accordance with the
Consensus Standard
ANSI/ITSDF Safety Standard for Low and High Lift Trucks B56.1-2000,
Section 5.3.19 which
states: "An active operator protection device or system, when provided,
shall be used."
