OSHA citation dated March 18, 1980 to Union Carbide, Inc. at Texas City, Texas, following a March 13, 1980 inspection. It cites one serious violation of Section 5(a)(1) of the OSH Act, with an $800 penalty, because an employee medically restricted from the chemical area due to sensitivity to amine compounds was assigned there with management's knowledge. The exhibit holds five pages, which appear to be several copies of the same citation.
