Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 004B 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. On or about August 25, 2022, with respect to an establishment located at 544 Acme Street, Green Bay, WI 54302, employees operating the Side Puller in the Harvest Department were exposed to potential caught-in hazard when the activation buttons for the clamping mechanism were located in an area that allowed access to the point of operation.
