[QUOTE="JustTired, post: 738252, member: 10234"] I will agree that grinders can be a dangerous tool when used improperly or are improperly maintained. My question is......what about the mechanic in an extended center who is alone in the building at 3 A.M. , crawling around under a car on jackstands? What happens if the car should fall off the stands and he is pinned under the car with no one else in the building to come to his aid? Isn't this an OSHA concern? If I was concerned with the safety of my employee......I would demand that a mechanic never be alone in a building while performing his duties. Even if you had to pay someone a minimum amount of money to sit there and watch him work. If you're gonna worry about an injury from a grinder......then shouldn't you worry about the scenario above? Or is this not a part of the audit process and therefore not a concern to the company? [/QUOTE]
