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.

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: Well head; on or about April 12, 2011, employees were operating a service rig during the repair of an oil well's leaky casing with the derrick hand working on the tubing board; no emergency escape system was provided for the derrick hand's use during rig emergencies. This precludes the derrick hand from making timely safe emergency egress from the rig mast during rig emergencies with hazards as: fire, falling, and/or rig collapse. The American Petroleum Institute Recommended Practice of Occupational Safety for Oil and Gas Well Drilling and Servicing Operations, RP 54, section 6.10.1 requires that an auxiliary means of escape be installed on the rig mast/derrick and that it provides a ready and convenient means of escape from the derrickman's working platform. Among other methods, one feasible and acceptable abatement method to the limit the employee's exposure to the hazards is to install an emergency escape system in accordance with the systems manufacturer's instructions and industry practices.ns
