Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 001 Hazard: STRUCK BY
Section 5(a)(1) of the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970: 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 the pendant control for the crane used to move steel coils had unlabeled control buttons exposing employees to serious struck-by injuries if the crane operator moved the material in an unintentional direction. (a)Shiloh Industries, Inc. 402 Ninth Ave, Mansfield, OH: On or about October 26, 2007, the employer did not ensure that the pendant control buttons were properly labeled for the crane used to move steel coils at the 800 ton press. Among other methods, one feasible and acceptable method to correct this hazard is to ensure the pendant control buttons are properly labeled as to their function according to ASME B30.11-1998 "Monorail and Underhung Cranes." No abatement certification or documentation is required for this item.
