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broke any rule; any findings appear as the citations listed below, and citations can be contested, reduced, or withdrawn.

General-duty citation text
29 CFR 1910.146(c)(1): The employer did not evaluate the workplace to determine if any spaces where employees enter to perform work were permit-required confined spaces: (a) On or about November 29, 2016, Stresscon Corporation did not adequately evaluate the workplace to determine if all spaces where employees enter to perform work were permit-required confined spaces. Employees were entering Tuckerbuilt concrete transporters to perform clean out and maintenance activities, which were not identified as permit-required confined spaces. Abatement Note: "Confined space" means a space that: (1) Is large enough and so configured that an employee can bodily enter and perform assigned work; and (2) Has limited or restricted means for entry or exit (for example, tanks, vessels, silos, storage bins, hoppers, vaults, and pits are spaces that may have limited means of entry.); and (3) Is not designed for continuous employee occupancy. If it is determined that employees will not enter permit spaces, the employer shall take effective measures to prevent its employees from entering the permit spaces and shall comply with 29 CFR 1910.146(c)(1), (c)(2), (c)(6), and (c)(8). If it is determined that employees will enter permit spaces, the employer shall develop and implement a written permit space program that complies with 29 CFR 1910.146. The written program shall be available for inspection by employees and their authorized representatives.
