6355
. If the employer requests or accepts consulting services
offered pursuant to Section 6354, the division in providing such
services at the employer's employment or place of employment shall
neither institute any prosecution under Section 6423 nor issue any
citations for a violation of any standard or order adopted pursuant
to Chapter 6 (commencing with Section 140) of Division 1. In any
instance in which the division representative providing the
consulting service finds that the conditions of employment, place of
employment, any work procedure, or the operation of any machine,
device, apparatus, or equipment constitutes an imminent hazard or
danger, within the meaning of Section 6325, to the lives, safety, or
health of employees, entry therein, or the use thereof, as the case
may be, shall be prohibited by the division pursuant to Section 6325.
The employer shall not, however, be liable to prosecution under
Section 6423, nor shall the division issue any citations or assess
any civil penalties, except in any case where the employer fails to
comply with the division's prohibition of entry or use, or in any
case where the provisions of Section 6326 apply.
