Text For Citation: 02 Item/Group: 001 Hazard:
29 CFR 1910.134(g)(1)(i)(A): Respirators with tight-fitting facepieces were worn by employees who had facial hair that came between the sealing surface of the facepiece and the face or that interfered with valve function: The employer does not protect each employee during basement cleaning operations by ensuring all employees are clean shaven while wearing respirators. On or about October 10, 2014, employees required to wear half mask filtering face piece N95 respirators while cleaning the basement sand reclamation area wore respirators with facial hair that came between the sealing surface of the face-piece and face. To abate this hazard in the future the employer must ensure employees are clean shaven when wearing respirators.
