Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 001 Hazard: STRUCK BY
North Carolina General Statute 95-129(1) of the Occupational Safety and Health Act of North Carolina: The employer did not furnish employment and a place of employment which were free from recognized hazards that were causing or likely to cause death or serious physical harm to employees in that employees were exposed to being struck-by a skid steer loader: a)jobsite, on 3/12/09, employees were assigned to work in close proximity to the Caterpillar Multi-Terrain Loader while grading the site and inadequate steps were taken to protect employees from the struck-by hazard. Among other methods, two applicable and feasible methods to correct this hazard are to isolate the area where the multi terrain loader is operating, preventing employees from entering the area, or the employer could establish a limited access zone limiting only authorized employees to be inside the area where the loader is operating and establish a non- approach boundary to keep employees away from the loader.
