Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 002 Hazard: CRUSHING
Labor and Employment Article, Section 5-104(a): The employer did not furnish employment and place of employment which were free from recognized hazards that were causing or likely to cause death or serious physical harm to employees: (a)Date of Violation:05/05/14 Location:66 Tandem Building/Cold Mill Building Condition:Thirteen employees were exposed to being crushed to death by collapsing roofing material as they performed asbestos abatement inside of the structure while at the same time demolition operations were ongoing in the same structure. Among other methods, one feasible and acceptable abatement method to correct this hazard would be to follow industry recognized standards such as ANSI A10.6-1983, Section 5.2, which states "No employee shall be permitted in any area that can be adversely affected when demolition operations are being performed. Only those employees necessary for the performance of the operations shall be permitted in these areas."ed
