Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 002 Hazard: UNCLASS
11.5.1 NMAC Section 50-9-5(A), NMSA 1978 (New Mexico Occupational Health and Safety Act): Every employer shall furnish to each of his employees employment and a place of employment which are free from recognized hazards that are causing or are likely to cause death or serious physical harm to his employees: Employees working on the service rig are exposed to the hazard of the controls having no or severely degraded labeling on the rig controls. While the rig operator is experienced, a moment of inattention or the need in an emergency for a less experienced hand to take a required action, could easily lead to confusion and delay. Clearly marked labels is an industry standard as evidenced by the requirements of the American Pertroleum Institute (API) Publication #4G, paragraph 9.2 and 9.2.1. One feasible and acceptable method includes but is not limited to the replacement of damaged labels as they occur. A label evaluation could additionally be made during the required Category III inspections. Date Corrected: Describe Corrective Action:
