NAICS 331110: Iron and Steel Mills and Ferroalloy Manufacturing / Manufacturing
This industry group comprises establishments primarily engaged in smelting iron ore and scrap iron to produce pig iron, converting pig iron and scrap to steel, and manufacturing ferroalloys. Rolling, drawing, and extruding steel are also included.
Common workplace hazards include thermal burns from molten metal and hot surfaces, exposure to metal fumes and dust, and noise-induced hearing loss from rolling and forming operations. Workers may also face risks from overhead crane operations, radiation from furnaces, and confined space hazards.
Lockout/tagout (29 CFR 1910.147) is consistently among the most cited standards in manufacturing because it applies to virtually every piece of powered equipment. Common violations include lack of written energy control procedures for specific machines, failure to train authorized and affected employees, failure to conduct periodic inspections of energy control procedures, and using inadequate lockout devices. The standard's detailed requirements make full compliance challenging for facilities with diverse equipment.
