Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 014A Hazard:
29 CFR 1910.1026(h)(2)(i): The employer did not ensure that employees removed all protective clothing and equipment contaminated with chromium (VI) at the end of the work shift or at the completion of their tasks involving chromium (VI) exposure, whichever came first: The employer did not ensure that employees remove all protective clothing and equipment contaminated with hexavalent chromium at the end of the work shift. This violation occurred on or about August 28, 2014, at times prior thereto and at times thereafter when employees exposed to hexavalent chromium did not remove clothing with hexavalent chromium at the end of the work shift. Full-shift air monitoring showed that employees working in the chromium plating area were exposed to levels of hexavalent chromium above OSHAs permissible exposure limit (PEL).
