Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 002 Hazard:
29 CFR 1910.179(n)(2)(iii): The employer did not ensure that care was taken to prevent the sling and components from contacting obstacles. On or about 1/27/2020, at the Wheelabrator equipment in the facility located at 416 N. Clarendon Ave, Scottdale, GA: Employees operated a 15-ton Ace Industries Inc. overhead crane, with a chain sling and dog clamp attachment, to load steel beams in length over 51 feet and weight over 2585 pounds onto a conveyor system. The chain sling and dog clamp attachment did not clear the steel beam while being raised, thereby exposing the employees to struck-by and/or caught-under hazard.
