29 CFR 1926.95(a): Protective equipment, including personal protective equipment for eyes, face, head, and extremities, protective clothing, respiratory devices, and protective shields and barriers, were not provided. The employer does not ensure that employees wear personal protective equipment. This violation occurred on or about August 23, 2013, in Timberland Estates near Mckenzie Circle and Larry Wayne St. in Porter, TX where an employee was exposed to a struck-by hazard when operating a John Deere Front End Loader Model 444H, S/N 0112-AKR16420 without being restrained by the seatbelt that was provided by the manufacturer. Pursuant to 29 C.F.R. 1903.19, within ten (10) calendar days of the abatement date, the employer must submit documentation showing that it is in compliance with the standard, including describing the steps that it is taking to ensure that the wearing of appropriate personal protective equipment in all operations are required where there is an exposure to hazardous conditions.
