Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 001 Hazard:
29 CFR 1910.36(d)(1): Employee(s) were not able to open an exit route door from the inside at all times without keys, tools, or special knowledge. The employer is failing to protect employees from emergency evacuation hazards associated with unimpeded/instant access to exit routes out of the building in the event of a fire or other emergency. This was most recently documented on December 18, 2018 at Family Dollar located at 3552 Leavenworth Street, Omaha NE.68114. The employer had employee's working in the store where the emergency exit door was locked with a scissor-lock mechanism requiring special knowledge to open.
