Text For Citation: 02 Item/Group: 002 Hazard:
29 CFR 1910.134(c)(2)(i): Respirator users were not provided with the information contained in Appendix D to 29 CFR 1910.134 when the employer determined that any voluntary respirator use was permissible: The employer is failing to protect employees from respiratory and cardiovascular health hazards associated with voluntarily wearing a N95 dust mask respirator during the course of their duties without having been informed of the hazards associated with wearing a tight fitting respirator as outlined in Appendix D of this subpart. This was most recently evident during the inspection of the facility located at 2500 Old Hadar Rd. Norfolk, NE 68701; where the employer has employees voluntarily wearing company provided Body Guard HY8810 NIOSH N95 Particulate Respirators in the course of their duties throughout the day and throughout the facility without having ever been trained on the use or advised of the hazards associated to wearing tight fitting respirators as outlined in Appendix D.
