Section 5(a)(1) of the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970: The employer did not furnish employment and a place of employment which were free from recognized hazards that were causing or likely to cause death or serious physical harm to employees in that employees were exposed to the hazard of electrocution. (a) On or about May 3, 1994 an employee of Smith Dairy located at 6345 County Rd. 33, Yuma, CO. was fatality electrocuted while using a 120 volt 1/2" drive Milwaukee brand drill to install a fence next to the "maternity barn".

A feasible and acceptable abatement method to correct this hazard is to wire the service panel per the National Electrical Code book as indicated in paragraph 200-11.
