Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 003A Hazard:
29 CFR 1926.1101(g)(1): The employer did not use the engineering controls and work practices located in (g)(1)(i) - (g)(1)(iii)of this section in all operations covered regardless of exposure levels: a. On or about June 1, 2024, at the gymnasium entry, employees were required to perform Class II asbestos operations, removing floor tile with mastic that contained 3% of chrysotile asbestos. The employer did not ensure the use of engineering and work practices including but not limited to, the use of vacuum cleaners equipped with HEPA filters, wet methods during removal, and prompt clean up and disposal of wastes in leak tight containers. Employees were thereby exposed to the hazards associated with asbestos.
