Text For Citation: 02 Item/Group: 001 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 June 3, 2022, bandsaw operators were exposed to amputation hazards while working on a one-man dismantler pallet machine and the employer did not ensure adequate guarding was installed to eliminate hazards such as those created by the point of operation. Abatement certification is required of this item in accordance with the requirements of 29 CFR 1903.19(c).
