Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 002A Hazard:
29 CFR 1910.179(e)(3)(i): Trolley(s) were not provided with bumpers or other automatic means of equivalent effect. The employer is failing to incorporate bumpers on overhead trolley(s) as to minimize impact forces sustained by employees moving exhaust units with hoist/crane units with trolleys, from carts to and from the robotic welder. This was most recently documented on April 2, 2019 on the FCA line where overhead crane/hoist units with trolleys are in use, at Tenneco Inc. 111 Izzak Rd in Seward, NE 68434 on the FCA SCR production cell. Employees on the FCA SCR line were using lifting devices and were not protected from the overhead hazards and resulting hazards, of trolley units not having impact absorbing or bumper devices installed that minimize shock impacts and resulting fatigue of parts.
