29 CFR 1910.335(a)(1)(i): Employees working in areas where there were potential electrical hazards were not provided with, and/or did not use, electrical protective equipment that was appropriate for the specific parts of the body to be protected and for the work to be performed: a) NuCentury Textile Services, LLC, Toledo, Ohio: On or about January 31, 2012, the employer failed to ensure that employees were protected from electrical hazards in that electrical protective equipment for the hands and body were not used by employees.
