Imminent Danger Situations a. The term "imminent danger" means any conditions or practices in any workplace which are such that a danger exists which could reasonably be expected to cause death or serious physical harm immediately or before the imminence of such danger can be eliminated through normal procedures (29 C.F.R. 1960.2(u)).
b. In the case of imminent danger situations, employees shall make reports by the most expeditious means available. The employee has a right to decline to perform his/her assigned tasks because of a reasonable belief that, under the circumstances, the task poses an imminent risk of death or serious bodily harm coupled with a reasonable belief that there is insufficient time to effectively seek corrective action through normal hazard reporting and abatement procedures. However, in these instances, the employee must report the situation to his/her supervisor or another supervisor who is immediately available.
c. If the condition can be corrected and the corrected condition does not pose an imminent danger, the employee must perform the assigned tasks. If the supervisor cannot correct the condition or does not feel that an imminent danger condition exists, the supervisor shall request an inspection by USMA safety or health personnel.
d. A Union representative will be given the opportunity to be present during the inspection by USMA safety or health personnel. If USMA safety or health personnel decide the condition does not pose an imminent danger, the instruction to return to work shall be in writing and contain a statement declaring the area or assignment to be safe. Refusal to perform an assignment after USMA safety or health personnel have deemed it to be safe may result in disciplinary action.
e. When the Employer receives a report that a potential or actual dangerous or unhealthful condition is present at a particular work site, the Employer shall notify the USMA Safety Office and the Union.
