29 CFR 1910.38(f): Employer did not review the emergency action plan with each employee covered by the plan that included the provisions in 1910.38(f)(1)-(3): The conditions occurred on or about October 20, 2010, and at times prior thereto, the employer does not ensure that each employee is informed about the emergency action plan and his responsibilities as outlined in the plan. This exposes employees to possible fire, burn, inhalation hazards, and death in the event of an accident or explosion. The conditions occurred at the Woodward Iodine Corporation. Pursuant to 29 C.F.R. 1903.19, within ten (10) calendar days of the date of this citation, the employer must submit documentation showing that it is in compliance with the standard, including the information required to be reviewed with employees covered by the emergency action plan. A method of abatement is to review the emergency action plan with each employee covered by the plan as prescribed in 29 CFR 1910.38(f)(1)-(3).
