Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 004A Hazard:

29 CFR 1910.146(g)(1): The employer did not provide training so that all employees whose work was regulated by 29 CFR 1910.146 (permit required confined spaces) acquired the understanding, knowledge, and skills necessary for the safe performance of the duties assigned under 29 CFR 1910.146: The employer is failing to protect employees from caught between, amputation and respiratory hazards associated with employees exposed to confined spaces in the work place. This was most recently evident during the inspection of the facility located at 4444 S. 76th Circle, Omaha, NE 68127 where the employer has employees working around and entering confined spaces for cleaning and maintenance of the equipment without having provided those employees with adequate training. Instances of adequate training include but are not limited to: i. The recognition of confined spaces and the difference between a confined space and a permit required confined space. ii. The restrictions and procedures associated with entering a confined space or a permit required confined space.
