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employer broke any rule; any findings appear as the citations listed below, and citations can be contested, reduced, or withdrawn.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 1910.95(c)(1): A continuing, effective hearing conservation program as described in 29 CFR 1910.95(c) through (n) was not instituted when employee noise exposures equaled or exceeded an 8-hour time-weighted average sound level (TWA) of 85 dBA: a) In the pallet dismantling area, employees were exposed to continuous noise level at 187% of the allowable 8-hour time-weighted average sound level (85 dBA). The equivalent dBA level of 187% is approximately 94.5 dBA. The sampling was performed for 448 minutes during one shift on November 06, 2017. Exposure calculations include a zero increment for the time not sampled. b) In the saw area, employees were exposed to continuous noise level at 92.1% of the allowable 8-hour time-weighted average sound level (85 dBA). The equivalent dBA level of 92.1% is approximately 89.45 dBA. The sampling was performed for 443 minutes during one shift on November 06, 2017. Exposure calculations include a zero increment for the time not sampled. c) In the saw area, employees were exposed to continuous noise level at 105.4% of the allowable 8-hour time-weighted average sound level (85 dBA). The equivalent dBA level of 105.4% is approximately 90.4 dBA. The sampling was performed for 438 minutes during one shift on November 06, 2017. Exposure calculations include a zero increment for the time not sampled. d) In the new build pallet area, employees were exposed to continuous noise level at 502% of the allowable 8-hour time-weighted average sound level (85 dBA). The equivalent dBA level of 502% is approximately 101.6 dBA. The sampling was performed for 433 minutes during one shift on November 06, 2017. Exposure calculations include a zero increment for the time not sampled. e) In the new build pallet area, employees were exposed to continuous noise level at 289% of the allowable 8-hour time-weighted average sound level (85 dBA). The equivalent dBA level of 289% is approximately 97.6 dBA. The sampling was performed for 432 minutes during one shift on November 06, 2017. Exposure calculations include a zero increment for the time not sampled.
