Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 003 Hazard:
29 CFR 1910.179(n)(2)(iii): The employer did not ensure that care was taken to prevent the sling from contacting obstacles: The employer is failing to protect the employees from struck-by and crushing hazards associated with overhead crane activities. This was most recently documented on November 3, 2017, at the workstation 2-297F Plant II factory located at 3801 S. Oliver St., Wichita, Kansas. Employees were exposed to struck-by and crushing hazards related to the displacement of tooling and/or other materials due to unintended sling contact. A cheek skin tool was displaced from its cradle after being contacted and caught by the sling hook. The employer did not ensure that care was taken to prevent the sling from contacting obstacles.
