I would add “grinders” to my personal walk-around inspection list. 

 

OSHA recently posted its top 10 most frequently cited violations for the fiscal year 2013. While two of the top three are construction industries, the balance are general industry and general requirements applicable to our shops.

Fall protection, construction (29 CFR 1926.501) 

Hazard communication standard, general industry (29 CFR 1910.1200) 

Scaffolding, general requirements, construction (29 CFR 1926.451) 

Respiratory protection, general industry (29 CFR 1910.134)

Electrical, wiring methods, components and equipment, general industry (29 CFR 1910.305) 

Powered industrial trucks, general industry (29 CFR 1910.178)

Ladders, construction (29 CFR 1926.1053)
