Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 012 Hazard:
29 CFR 1910.243(b)(2): Air hose and hose connections used for conducting compressed air to utilization equipment were not designed for the pressure and service to which they were subjected. At a worksite located at 33643 State Route 6, Brashear, MO: The employer failed to protect employees from struck-by hazards. This was most recently demonstrated on or about March 1, 2023, and at times prior to when there was an air hose that was used in part to supply air to pneumatic air lines. The air hose was attached to the hose fitting by a worm drive-type hose clamp which was not designed for use on an air hose. a) Three clamps were associated with the Curtis Air Compressor and thereby exposing employees to possible whipping action of the hose if the clamp were to come off. b) Two clamps were associated with the Hurdle Saw and thereby exposing employees to possible whipping action of the hose if the clamp were to come off.
