Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 002 Hazard:
29 CFR 1910.37(a)(2): Exit routes were not arranged so that employees did not have to travel toward a high hazard area, unless the path of travel was effectively shielded from the high hazard area by suitable partitions or other physical barriers. On or about August 29, 2017 and there prior, the exit routes from the East Side Knot saws were arranged so employees had to travel on an energized, moving conveyor belt. This condition exposed employees to trips, fall and struck-by hazards.
