General-duty citation text

Labor and Employment Article, Section 5-104(a): 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:
(a)Date of Violation:On or About 08/06/13
Location:Loading Dock #09
Condition:Employees unloading produce with forklifts were exposed to
crushing hazards as a
result of the employer's failure to develop adequate procedures to prevent
premature
departure of tractor trailers.
Among other methods, one feasible and acceptable method to correct this
hazard would be the institution of a
specific policy or procedure which would prevent tractor trailer drivers
from prematurely departing the loading
dock while loading and unloading operations are underway, or the
installation of physical/mechanical restraints
in accordance with standard industry practice.
Abatement documentation (photographs, receipts, copies of programs,
training certification, etc.)
is required for this item.
