    Disclaimer/Usage Notes

    • Photos shown in this presentation may depict situations that are not in compliance with applicable OSHA requirements.
    • It is not the intent of the content developers to provide compliance-based training in this presentation, or to train employees how to operate the equipment depicted. The intent is more to address hazard awareness in the construction industry, and to recognize the overlapping hazards present in many construction workplaces.
    • It should NOT be assumed that the suggestions, comments, or recommendations contained herein constitute a thorough review of the applicable standards, nor should discussion of “issues” or “concerns” be construed as a prioritization of hazards or possible controls. Where opinions (“best practices”) have been expressed, it is important to remember that safety issues in general and construction jobsites specifically will require a great deal of site- or hazard-specificity – a “one size fits all” approach is not recommended, nor will it likely be very effective.

    Why Require Training?

    • Operator training is required by:
    • OSHA
    • Manufacturers
    • Clients
    • Employers
  7. Slide 7

    Why Is Training Needed?

    • OSHA investigated two fatal accidents in 2005 in southern Colorado involving the rollover of pneumatic rubber-tired roller/compactors
  8. Slide 8

    Accident #1

    • May 2005
    • Employee was fatally injured while operating a pneumatic rubber-tired roller
  9. Slide 9

    Accident #1

    • Roller ran off the road and traveled down a 22-degree embankment
    • Rolled over 1½ times, stopped on its top
    • Operator was thrown from the machine
    • Fatally crushed between the machine and ground
  10. Slide 10

    Accident #1

    • Roller was originally equipped with a ROPS and a seatbelt
    • Both had been removed prior to the accident
  11. Slide 11

    Accident #2

    • August 2005
    • Employee was rolling material into the gravel using a pneumatic rubber-tired roller
  12. Slide 12

    Accident #2

    • Roller ran off the road and down a 28-degree embankment
    • Compactor rolled onto its side and came to a stop
    • Operator was thrown from the machine and fatally crushed
    • Roller was not provided with a ROPS, operator not wearing a seatbelt
  13. Slide 13

    Summary of Accidents

    • In both cases,
    • If the machine had been equipped with a ROPS system, and
    • If the operator had been wearing a seatbelt,
    • The operator’s survival would have increased significantly
  14. Slide 14

    Additional Accidents

    • Between 2000 and 2006
    • OSHA investigated over 50 rollover incidents
  15. Slide 15

    • ROPS
    • Removed
    • No ROPS
  16. Slide 16

    Roller Compactor Safety

    • Always be aware that a rollover hazard exists
    • ROPS and seatbelts ALWAYS reduce the risk of a fatality
    • Highest hazard locations were roadway or embankment edges
  17. Slide 17

    Roller Compactor Safety

    • When operating on uneven surfaces, chances of a rollover increase
    • Another hazard was runaway machines, typically down slopes
    • Evaluate roadways and work surfaces for dangerous inclines/declines
  18. Slide 18

    ROPS

    • A ROPS is a protective frame mounted on the machine and extends above the operator’s seat
    • ROPS bear the weight of the machine during a rollover event
    • ROPS minimize the likelihood that the machine will overturn completely
  19. Slide 19

    ROPS

    • A principle in ROPS design is to restrict the overturn to 90 degrees
    • ROPS must to be used in combination with a seatbelt
    • A ROPS only provides protection if the operator remains in the seat
  20. Slide 20

    Roller Compactor Safety

    • A number of hazards associated with rollovers were pointed out, including:
    • Working near road edge or embankment was the most hazardous
    • The second most hazardous were steep slopes and roadway curves
    • Problems with gear-shifting and brakes resulted in runaways
    • Source: Compactor Overturns and Rollover Protective Structures
  21. Slide 21

    Roller Compactor Safety

    • Compacting soil appeared to be more hazardous than other operations
    • Hazards included the soil edges and soft soil pockets that could drop under the weight of the unit.
  22. Slide 26

    Compactor Roller Safety

    • Loading and unloading machines onto trailers posed a potential overturn hazard
    • Hazards were caused by
    • skidding on the ramps,
    • using wood blocks or planks as ramps,
    • or a machine that was too narrow to span both sides of the ramp
  23. Slide 27

    What is this in the background?

  24. Slide 31

    Need for ROPS

    • Studies show that if the machines involved are equipped with ROPS, and if the operators are wearing seatbelts, the operator’s survival increases significantly
  25. Slide 32

    Regulations

    • OSHA does not have a standard requiring the use ROPS or seatbelts
    • OSHA’s position is that the hazard of equipment rollover is a “recognized hazard” within the meaning of the General Duty Clause of the OSH Act
  26. Slide 33

    General Duty Clause

    • (a) Each employer --
    • (1) shall furnish to each of his employees employment and a place of employment which are free from recognized hazards that are causing or are likely to cause death or serious physical harm to his employees;
    • (2) shall comply with occupational safety and health standards promulgated under this Act
  27. Slide 34

    General Duty Clause

    • (b) Each employee shall comply with occupational safety and health standards and all rules, regulations, and orders issued pursuant to this Act which are applicable to his own actions and conduct
  28. Slide 35

    Other Regulations

    • 29 CFR 1926.20(b)(4), states “the employer shall permit only those employees qualified by training or experience to operate equipment and machinery.”
  29. Slide 36

    Other Regulations

    • 29 CFR 1926.21(b)(2), “Safety training and education,” states further that “the employer shall instruct each employee in the recognition and avoidance of unsafe conditions….”
  30. Slide 37

    Compactor Roller Safety

    • Employers performing construction work are required to ensure that their operators are trained;
    • To use the equipment properly and
    • To understand how to recognize those situations and conditions that pose a rollover hazard
  31. Slide 38

    Compactor Roller Safety

    • For example, operators need to understand that:
    • Soft edges can cause one side of the equipment to sink and therefore may pose a risk of rollover;
    • Turning away from a slope with articulated steering can destabilize the compactor;
  32. Slide 39

    Compactor Roller Safety

    • Improperly inflated tires can destabilize roller/compactors; and
    • Rain or wet conditions can pose a hazard during unloading and loading
    • and can increase the possibility of rollovers near embankments as soil conditions become unstable
  33. Slide 40

    Roller Compactor Safety

    • Leaving a compactor vibrator engaged while stationary has led to the settling of soil on one side of the unit, allowing it to overturn
    • Articulation of a mobile unit with the jackknife pointed toward an edge presents a substantial overturn hazard
  34. Slide 41

    Roller Compactor Safety

    • Remember to always think safety, the life you save may be your own
    • Always use ROPS and seat belts
    • Now we will review as well as discuss proper procedures for operating your machine
