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 an
employee in that
employees were exposed to hazardous conditions when the employee was
exposed to fall
hazards:
a) Work production area at Integrated Laminate Systems in Cinnaminson NJ :
An
employee was exposed to a fall hazard in excess of four feet to the ground
surface
below when working from a Vestil Manufacturing Corporation Work Platform
model
WP-3737FD without the use of fall protection, on or about 2/17/11.
One feasible and useful method of abatement would be to provide a means of
fall
protection for the employee, such as wearing a harness and lanyard and
tying off to
an anchor point.
NOTE:  THE EMPLOYER IS REQUIRED TO SUBMIT ABATEMENT CERTIFICATION
FOR THIS ITEM.  FAILURE TO COMPLY WILL RESULT IN AN ADDITIONAL
