Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 001E Hazard:
29 CFR 1910.146(d)(9): The employer did not develop and implement procedures for summoning rescue and emergency services, for rescuing entrants from permit spaces, for providing necessary emergency services to rescued employees, and/or for preventing unauthorized entry: (a) Elite Labor Services, Ltd., dba Elite Staffing, Inc., at 5395 Franklin Street, Denver, CO: On and preceding 7/20/2020, the employer did not develop and implement procedures for rescuing entrants from the CP Manufacturing OCCScreen permit required confined space. Employees entered the OCCScreen machine through a small access hatch to dislodge debris collected within the spindles or discs. The screening machine utilized electricity to rotate the spindles. The employees moved within the screening machine upon the unstable surface of the spindles and discs. Gaps existed between spindles and discs that were large enough to entrap employee's feet or legs. This condition exposed employees to an entrapment hazard.
