General-duty citation text
Section 5(a)(1) of the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970: Section 5(a)(1) of the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970: The employer did not furnish to each of his employees a place of employment which was free from recognized hazards that were causing or likely to cause death or serious physical harm to employees in that an employee was exposed to the hazard of electrocution. On or about June 14, 2011, in the Quench and Temp area near the Hydrotest unit, an employee was directed to use a crane that had been removed from service. The crane was removed from service because the pendant control was damaged and shocking employees during use and the electrical cord that supplied power to the crane was dislodged from its track and laying on the ground. Among other methods, one feasible and acceptable method for abatement is to discontinue use of the crane until adjustments, repairs, or replacements can be made per ASME B30.11 - 2010 Monorails and Underhung Cranes, Paragraph 11-4.2.4(a). IN THE ALTERNATIVE: 29 CFR 1910.303(b)(7)(iv): Damaged parts were used that may adversely affect safe operation or mechanical strength of the equipment such as parts that were broken, bent, cut, or deteriorated by corrosion, chemical action, or overheating. On or about June 14, 2011, in the Quench and Temp area near the Hydrotest unit, an employee was directed to use a crane that had been removed from service. The crane was removed from service because the pendant control was damaged and shocking employees during use and the electrical cord that supplied power to the crane was dislodged from its track and laying on the ground.
