2 PreviousPrevious NextNext
What’s its purpose?
Describe policies and procedures to identify and reduce workplace industry hazards likely to cause amputations
3 PreviousPrevious NextNext
Where does it apply?
OSHA wide 40% of nations workplaces States encouraged to adopt similar
programs General industry employers whose
workplaces include shears, saws, slicers, and power presses (the 3s and a P)
4 PreviousPrevious NextNext
What’s the background and reason for the program?
Continued incidence of amputations from the operation of saws, shears, slicers, and power presses of all types
Equipment was identified from three sources:– NIOSH research project on machine safety– OSHA IMIS accident database– BLS data
5 PreviousPrevious NextNext
Saws
Used primarily in woodworking and manufacturing shops
Two types– Table – Radial arm
Other types include:
Hand held Chop Miter
Skil Band

Shears
Self-contained machines using a mechanically driven ram
Ram moves a nonrotary blade at a constant rate past the edge of fixed blade
Machine components consist of:
FrameRAM Blades Drive
Hold-down(s) Guards
Clutch Brake

Slicers
Commonly used to slice meat and food
Use rotary blade Guillotine cutters used
in other industries Most injuries occur in
restaurants and grocery stores

NEP covers all types of power presses
Presses consist of stationary bed, and slide
Used in a variety of industries

Program Procedures
Existing programs may be combined or expanded, or a new program developed
NEP includes three activities:– Outreach– Targeting/selection– Inspection
NEP - Amputations
26 PreviousPrevious NextNext
When will the program start?
Outreach – will be continued to support the purpose of this NEP
Inspections – are to begin March 26, 2002

Additions to list
Area offices will obtain and use additional data to identify and add establishments where amputation injuries or fatalities related to these machines have occurred in the last 5 years.
Local information could include– IMIS/Workers’compensation data– NIOSH/hospital admissions/discharge data– Emergency Medical Services, fire department, and
police reports– OSHA 200 and 300 logs
31 PreviousPrevious NextNext
Inspection Procedures
Scheduled I.A.W. firm Once scheduled, IMIS data base
will be searched for employer’s citation and fatality/accident history prior to opening conference
At opening conference, CSHO will inquire if any of this machinery is present in the workplace
32 PreviousPrevious NextNext
Inspection procedures (cont’d)
If present, a thorough inspection will be conducted focusing on:– Nip points– Pinch points– Shear points– Cutting actions– Point(s) of operation
33 PreviousPrevious NextNext
Inspection procedures (cont’d)
CSHO will also evaluate employee exposures during the following:– Regular operation of machine– Setup/threading/preparation for operation of machine– Clearing jamups or upset conditions– Making adjustments while machine is operating– Cleaning of machine– Oiling/greasing of machine /machine parts– Scheduled/unscheduled maintenance– Lockout/tagout considerations
34 PreviousPrevious NextNext
Inspections procedures (cont’d)
CSHO will review OSHA 200 and 300logs for all amputation injuries or hazards
Limited to hazards associated with power presses, saws, shears, and slicers, but may be expanded
Inspections will begin March 26, 2002 Because program may yield significant cases,
A.D.s, supervisors and CSHOs should ensure case developments are being met
35 PreviousPrevious NextNext
Scheduling and resource allocation
Resources - R.A.’s will ensure adequate resources for this NEP
Planning - R.A.’s will report to DCP, the number of NEP inspections that are planned for each fiscal year
36 PreviousPrevious NextNext
Scheduling and resource allocation (cont’d)
Priority - Inspection conducted under this NEP have a lower priority than Site Specific Targeting (SST), but have a higher priority than other programmed inspections
37 PreviousPrevious NextNext
Coordination
National Office – NEP will be coordinated with
Office of General Industry Compliance, DCP
Field– Each R.A. will have a
coordinator
38 PreviousPrevious NextNext
Training
Due to nature of program, staff must have adequate training or experience
OTI provides training materials– Additional sessions of power press/machine
guarding course can be made available– Can be expanded to include use of stop time
measuring device
