Earlier in the day, another employee who had been working on a concrete beam on an upper floor had reported to the foreman that they had concerns about the floor's safety, OSHA said. But despite that report, work continued. OSHA said that Monsini never got a safety briefing or training on how to follow the engineer's demolition plan.
Questions surrounding the partial collapse of the Government Center parking garage continue to mount. OSHA also said that the company did not stick to the demolition plan, including putting heavy equipment on the partially demolished structure on the seventh, eighth and ninth floors despite that kind of equipment being prohibited for safety.
The company was cited for"eight egregious-willful violations, two serious violations and one other than serious violation of workplace safety standards," OSHA said, totaling $1,191,292. The citations included issues with training and loading violations, inadequate accident prevention program, uncovered floor holes and insufficient recordkeeping.OSHA also cited John Moriarty and Associates Inc., the general contractor, for four serious violations, totaling $58,008 in proposed penalties.
Both companies have 15 business days to comply, request an information conference with OSHA or to contest the findings.
