Summary of Stiles Painting Manufacturing – decision after reconsideration

DOSH cited employer for an alleged general violation of 8 CCR 3661(c), [warning horn on an industrial truck]. Affirming the ALJ's granting of employer's appeal, the Appeals Board found DOSH had failed to prove employee exposure to the hazard alleged. The Board held there was neither proof of actual employee exposure to the alleged hazard, nor to the zone of danger around the hazard..
