Text For Citation: 02 Item/Group: 001 Hazard:
29 CFR 1910.212(a)(1): One or more methods of machine guarding shall be provided to protect the operator and other employees in the machine area from hazards such as those created by point of operation, ingoing nip points, rotating parts, flying chips and sparks. (a) Swift Beef Company @ 800 North 8th Ave., Greeley, CO 80631: On and before June 10th, 2014, the employer did not ensure that Alvey Maintenance Technicians were protected from unguarded in-going nip-points associated with two inbound inclined conveyor belts #002-1B and #121-1B located in the room directly across from the Sealer Room. On June 10th, 2014, an Alvey Maintenance Technician working in close proximity to unguarded in-going nip-points on the return idler located underneath the conveyor #002-1B, inadvertently had his hair caught by the return idler and was subsequently drawn into the conveyor system which resulted in his death. This condition exposed an employee to caught-in-between hazards. Swift Beef Company was previously cited for a violation of this occupational safety and health standard or its equivalent standard, 29 CFR 1910.212(a)(1) which was contained in OSHA inspection number 311908982, citation number 1, item number 11 and was affirmed as a final order on June 15, 2010 , with respect to a workplace located at 800 North 8th Avenue, Greeley, CO, 80631.
