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employer broke any rule; any findings appear as the citations listed below, and citations can be contested, reduced, or withdrawn.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 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 crushed-by and drowning hazards:
At Greenleaf Nursery Company, employee(s) operated New Holland Tractors.
The employer did not ensure functional seat belts were available on all
tractor(s)
equipped with Roll-over Protection System (ROPS), such as, but not limited
to:

the
following:

2.Ensure operators always wear the seat belt and fully extend the Roll-over
Protection system during operation in accordance with the New Holland

3.Establish and implement a review with the tractor operators: the
manufacturers operating manual safety warnings, the importance of how
seat belts and ROPS function together, the importance of staying buckled
in the operators seat during a roll over situation with adverse conditions
and loads, to slow down before turning.
4.Ensure operators are trained and skilled in safe work practices.
5.Establish and implement unannounced safety audits to ensure operators are
following the established safe practices.
