Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 003B Hazard:
29 CFR 1910.138(a): The employer did not select and require employee(s) to use appropriate hand protection when employees' hands were exposed to hazards such as those from skin absorption of harmful substances; severe cuts or lacerations; severe abrasion; punctures; chemical burns; thermal burns; and harmful temperature extremes: The employer is failing to protect employees from chemical burn hazards. The condition was most recently observed at 222 Russell Boulevard, St. Louis, Missouri where the employer is failing to require employees to use appropriate hand protection when changing propane fuel cylinders on power industrial trucks to prevent skin burns (frostbite) as a result of contact with liquid propane.
