29 CFR 1910.176(a): Where mechanical handling equipment was used, sufficient safe clearances were not allowed for aisles, at loading docks, through doorways or wherever turns or passage had to be made. The employer is failing to prevent employee exposure to struck-by / crushing hazards. At 6190 Mid Rivers Mall Drive in St. Peters, MO 63304 - On or about 7/23/19, employees were exposed to struck-by / crushing hazards where operators were allowed to travel with the mast of a "Crown" (Model No. RR5725-45; Serial No. 1A422917) powered industrial truck (PIT) raised approximately 16 feet while loaded with about 26 sheets of 5/8-inch drywall, measuring 48 inches in width by 144 inches in length, and a combined weight of approximately 2,745.6 pounds, to clear the height of a shelving system and other stacks of sheet materials and sales products, which reduced the aisle opening (width) to approximately 138 inches.
