Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 010 Hazard:
29 CFR 1910.184(c)(12): Slings were pulled from under loads when loads were resting on the slings: On or about 5/14/14 at 200 McIntyre Drive, Hartwell, GA, in the scrap loading area: an employee was observed loading a bundle of approximately 100, 40-foot scrap tubes into the trailer. The employee inched the crane up to pull the straps out from under the loads, causing the loads to drag across the bed of the trailer or until the straps came out. The company did not utilize any type of blocking to allow for the straps to be pulled out from under the load, causing the full weight (10,000 to 14,000 pounds) to rest on the two straps as they are pulled out.
