Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 002B Hazard:
29 CFR 1910.1200(g)(8): The employer did not maintain in the workplace copies of the required safety data sheets for each hazardous chemical, and did not ensure that they were readily accessible during each work shift to employees when they were in their work area(s) (a) On and before November 26, 2019. The employer did not maintain SDS sheets for commonly used metals in Plant 2, such as A36, A42, A992 on the electronic SDS database that was to be used as a the primary method for employees to reference the hazardous nature of chemicals onsite. This exposes employees to chemical exposure hazards and prohibits employees from accessing SDS data regarding health effects from chemicals that they are exposed to and emergency response actions in the case of an emergency.
