Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 002B Hazard:
29 CFR 1910.212(a)(1): Types of guarding. One or more methods of machine guarding shall be provided to protect the operator and other employees in the machine area from hazards such as those created by point of operation, ingoing nip points, rotating parts, flying chips and sparks. Examples of guarding methods are-barrier guards, two-hand tripping devices, electronic safety devices, etc. a) On or about October 10, 2024, in the ECO Department, the employer did not ensure the glue module for converting machine A055 was guarded to prevent employees who work near the glue module from coming into contact with the hot glue at the glue head dispensing heads ( 117-196 degrees Fahrenheit), thereby exposing employees to thermal hazards, such as but not limited burns to the hand.
