(31) What is movable non-hand-held equipment? It is equipment that is not hand-held when operated, such as a drill press, lathe, or other mounted equipment. (32) Does cited personal protective equipment (PPE), including respirators and eye and face protection, have to be tagged? No. OSHA considers PPE deficiencies violations of the PPE standard, not movable equipment violations. (33) Does an employer who receives a citation for a violation involving rented equipment have to tag it? Yes. (34) Does an employer have to tag equipment, such as a trailer or a truck, that was cited for not having chocks in place if that equipment has been moved? No, because such a violation arises from an administrative or procedural violation (the use of chocks), not a hazard of the truck or trailer itself. (35) Does cited movable equipment have to be tagged if it is owned by an affected employee? Yes. An employer's duty under the Occupational Safety and Health Act to maintain a safe and healthful workplace applies to employee-owned equipment that the employer allows to be used at the work site. (36) Does an employer have to tag all similar movable equipment that poses the same hazard as the cited equipment but was not cited by OSHA (for example, all ladders if a single ladder was cited) Such tagging is not required by this regulation; however, the employer can be cited for a repeat or willful violation if an OSHA compliance officer identifies the violation during a later inspection. (37) When can the tag or copy of the citation be removed from the cited equipment? The tag may be removed when the employer: (a) Corrects the cited violation and submits all required abatement verification documents to the Area Director. (b) Permanently removes the cited equipment from service (for example, makes it inoperable). (c) Receives a Commission order stating that the Commission has vacated the citation (for contested citations only). (d) No longer controls the equipment (for example, sells it and places it under the control of the buyer or returns it to the rental company). (38) Does a warning tag have to stay on cited equipment that is sold and is no longer under the control of the seller? No. The seller of the cited equipment is not responsible for tagging or abating a hazard once the equipment is sold and is no longer under the seller's control. (39) If an employer buys tagged equipment, what will happen? The buyer isn't responsible for the original citation, but can be cited by OSHA for having hazardous equipment (just like the former owner) if the hazard is still uncorrected. (40) Can the buyer of tagged equipment be cited for a willful violation? If the buyer knew about the hazard (for example, the employer was told about the hazard by the seller or saw the warning tag or citation on the equipment), the buyer can be cited for a willful violation. (41) What should a buyer do with the tags or citations on cited equipment? OSHA recommends that the buyer keep the tags or citations on the equipment until the hazard is corrected. (42) What if an employer buys equipment that has been cited, but there's no tag on it? If the buyer knows that it has been cited, or knows (or should know) that it is hazardous, the buyer must correct the hazard before making the equipment available to employees for their use. (43) If an employer moves cited equipment for use on another work site of that employer, does the tag stay on the equipment? Yes. See more from topic source: https://www.osha.gov/html/a-z-index.html
