Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 003 Hazard:
29 CFR 1910.212(a)(3)(ii):The point of operation of machines whose operation exposes an employee to injury, shall be guarded. The guarding device shall be in conformity with any appropriate standards therefor, or, in the absence of applicable specific standards, shall be so designed and constructed as to prevent the operator from having any part of his body in the danger zone during the operating cycle. Employees were engaged in activities related to tortilla manufacturing at a factory that is located at 10521 South 15th St., Grand Island, NE 68801, and were exposed to amputation hazards while operating a machine in that the employees were not instructed in the recognition of the hazards associated with cleaning a machine while it is operating, and the methods to mitigate those hazards.
