Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 004 Hazard:
29 CFR 1910.178(q)(7): Industrial trucks were not examined before being placed in service and were placed in service when the examination showed condition(s) that would adversely affect the safety of the vehicle. Examinations were not made at least daily. Where industrial trucks are used on a round-the-clock basis, they were not examined after each shift: a) At 300 Industrial Park Blvd, Nashville, GA 31639, Plant 5, on the southwest side, on or about October 13, 2021, the employer failed to ensure a forklift was examined daily. A forklift was found to be in operation at the time of inspection without a working horn, thereby exposing employees to struck-by hazards.
