Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 002D Hazard:
29 CFR 1926.1153(e)(2):Where respirator use is required by this section, the employer did not institute a respiratory protection program in accordance with 29 CFR 1910.134: At the jobsite located at or near Route M bridge near Schell City, Missouri: Employees were exposed to pulmonary hazards from respirator use and respiratory illness from inhalation of silica dust and particulates. There is a discrepancy between the written respiratory protection program and its implementation in that the employer's respiratory protection program did not include those employees using respirators while cutting concrete without the engineering controls specified in Table 1 of 1926.1153. Employees were not medically evaluated or fit tested for the respirators in use at the worksite.
