Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 003A Hazard:
29 CFR 1910.1025(f)(2)(i): The employer did not implement a respiratory protection program in accordance with 29 CFR 1910.134(b) through (d) (except (d)(1)(iii)), and (f) through (m) for each employee required by 29 CFR 1910.1025 to use a respirator: (a) At Martin Foundry Company Inc.: The employer did not develop and implement a written respiratory program to protect employees overexposed to lead. Employees performing melting and pouring operations were not wearing respiratory protection to prevent overexposures to lead.
