Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 002A Hazard:
29 CFR 1910.179(n): Handling the load. 29 CFR 1910.179(n)(3)(x): The employer shall insure that the operator does not leave his position at the controls while the load is suspended. On or about November 30, 2023, the employer did not ensure that the operator remained at the controls for F-11 SPO Bolster Crane. A heavy load was suspended over an unstable metal cart and left unattended. A failure in the rigging or hoist chain with an unattended, unstable suspended load weighing more than 100 pounds exposes employees to crushing and struck by injuries that could result in broken bones or life altering disabilities. Abatement documentation is required for this item in accordance with the requirements of 29 CFR 1903.19(d).
