An imminent danger is any condition or practice that <br /> presents a substantial probability that death or serious physical harm could occur immediately or before <br /> the danger can be eliminated through normal enforcement procedures. MNOSHA becomes aware of <br /> these situations through reports received from employees, the general public or direct observation by an <br /> investigator. <br /> If an imminent danger situation is identified, the safety and health investigator will ask the employer to <br /> voluntarily eliminate the hazard and to remove the endangered employees from exposure. If the <br /> employer fails to do this,MNOSHA may"red tag"the equipment or job site for 72 hours. <br /> 11 <br />
