OSH ACT of 1970 Section (5)(a)(1): 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: On and before August 24, 2018, employees were exposed to crushing and struck by hazards while painting various sizes of elevated dumpsters using hydraulic powered two-post, frame engaging, drive over, surface mounted automotive lifts installed in the paint booth. Employees were exposed to the hazards due to: A) The lift capacity was not indicated on the automotive lifts, nor was it known by the employer and employee operators resulting in potential overloading of the automotive lifts used to elevate loads weighing as much as 12,262 pounds; and B) The automotive lifts were not inspected, repaired, and maintained to ensure reliability and allow the continued safe operation of the lifts.
