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broke any rule; any findings appear as the citations listed below, and citations can be contested, reduced, or withdrawn.

HAR 12-60-2(a)(3) was violated because:
The employer failed to anchor column legs on rack systems, thus exposing
employees to
struck-by and crushed-by hazards.  ANSI MH16.1:2008, Specification for the
Development,
Testing, and Utilization of Industrial Steel Storage Racks, Section 1.4.7
states "All rack
columns shall be anchored to the floor with anchor bolts capable of
resisting the forces
caused by the horizontal and vertical loads on the rack."
12-60-2(a)(3)  states "Every employer shall provide safe work places and
practices by
elimination or reduction of existing or potential hazards.  Elimination of
existing or potential
hazards by design, process substitution, or other appropriate methods is
preferred because it
eliminates the need for further employee protection.  When elimination is
not feasible,
reduction of existing or potential hazards to acceptable levels, using
methods such as
engineering or administrative controls, isolation, or guarding, shall be
promptly used.  When
these methods are inadequate to reach acceptable levels, personal
protective equipment shall
be provided and used."

HAR 12-60-2(a)(3) was violated because:
The employer failed to regularly inspect rack systems for damage and
replace or repair
damaged racks.  Two shelving units had a bent column leg, thus employees
were exposed to
struck-by and crushed-by hazards.  ANSI MH16.1:2008 Specification for the
Design,
Testing, and Utilization of Industrial Steel Storage Racks, Section
1.4.1(2) states  "The
owner shall maintain the structural integrity of the installed rack system
by assuring proper
operation, housekeeping, and maintenance procedures including, but not
limited to the
following: (1) Prohibit any overloading of any pallet positions and of the
overall rack system.
(2) Regularly inspect for damage.  If damage is found, immediately unload
the affected area
and replace or repair any damaged columns, beams or other structural
components."
12-60-2(a)(3) states "Every employer shall provide safe work places and
practices by
elimination or reduction of existing or potential hazards.  Elimination of
existing or potential
hazards by design, process substitution, or other appropriate methods is
preferred because it
eliminates the need for further employee protection.  When elimination is
not feasible,
reduction of existing or potential hazards to acceptable levels, using
methods such as
engineering or administrative controls, isolation, or guarding, shall be
promptly used.  When
these methods are inadequate to reach acceptable levels, personal
