29 CFR 1910.176(b): Storage of materials created a hazard: a) On November 14, 2022, and times prior thereto employees were exposed to struck-by and crushing hazards when placing and removing boxes by hand to and from a free-standing steel industrial shelving unit. While approximately 164 boxes ranging in weight from approximately 28 to 43 pounds were stored on the shelving, the capacity of the shelving was not posted. The amount and distribution of weight, attaching hardware, insufficient bracing and lack of floor anchors affected the overall stability of the shelving. Note) Certification and documentation of corrective actions are required for these items.
