General-duty citation text
OSH ACT of 1970 Section (5)(a)(1): 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 in that employees were exposed to the hazard of being crushed or seriously injured in a fall while being elevated in a basket on a forklift truck without the benefit of adequate means of fall protection: a) Production Area - On or about 1/30/13, an employee was observed working from a plastic basket which was raised by a Hyster forklift truck in order to gain access to the ceiling area where the maintenance employee was hard-wiring the Core Cutter. The maintenance employee was exposed to a fall of approximately 12' to the concrete floor below. Among other methods, several feasible and acceptable abatement methods to correct this hazard includes: 1) Only operator-up high lift trucks have been designed to lift personnel. If a work platform is used on trucks designed and intended for handling material, the requirement of ASME B56.1-2000 Section 4.17.2 and 4.17.3 shall be met for the protection of personnel, 2) use an alternate safe means to access the electrical components at the ceiling area such as a scissors lift, and 3) provide training to employees on the safe means to access electrical equipment at ceiling heights.
