Washington Administrative Code › Title 296 - Labor and Industries, Department of › Chapter 296-17A - Classifications for Washington workers' compensation insurance › Section 296-17A-4304 - Classification 4304

Current through Register Vol. 24-14, July 15, 2024
4304-00 Feedlots or stockyards
Applies to establishments engaged in operating feedlots or
				stockyards. Feedlots are large, enclosed yards usually with pens or stables
				where livestock, such as cattle, horses, sheep or pigs, are temporarily held
				for the sole purpose of supplying with feed and nourishment. Feed (such as corn
				or hay) is brought in bulk. Feed may be mixed in choppers and blown into feeder
				troughs. The livestock are raised until they reach certain weights, then sold
				to packing houses or slaughterhouses. Stockyards are holding areas (large,
				enclosed yards) where livestock are kept until they are sent for slaughter,
				sold or dispersed elsewhere.
This classification excludes packing houses or slaughterhouses
				which are to be reported separately in classification 4301 and livestock
				auction and sales yards or livestock buyers houses which are to be reported
				separately in classification 4304-02.
4304-02 Livestock auction and sales yards; livestock
				buyers
Applies to establishments engaged in operating livestock
				auction and sales yards and to livestock buyers. Operation of an auction and
				sales yard involves the exhibition and sale of cattle, horses, mules, sheep,
				hogs and goats. The premises usually consists of an arena, a grandstand for
				customers (both buyers and sellers), and outside pens or stalls for livestock.
				The livestock are usually dropped off by customers (farmers, ranchers, etc.),
				are tagged, recorded, checked by brand inspectors and veterinarians, and
				inspected by employees of the yard. If the animals are left prior to the day of
				the sale, the employees will feed the livestock and maintain the pens. When the
				auction begins, yard employees bring the livestock to the arena, parade them
				around for show, then take them back to the pens to be weighed. A recordkeeper
				usually assists the auctioneer during this activity. Recordkeepers engaged
				directly in the business of auctioning are subject to the auction
				classification. Livestock buyers view the livestock from an overhead viewing
				area or by walking through the pen area.

4401-00 Cold storage lockers
Applies to establishments that rent cold storage lockers to the
				public. These establishments do not own equity in the merchandise that is
				stored. Other than being cold storage facilities they are similar to
				mini-warehouse storage operations. Typically these operations will be a part of
				a retail or wholesale food or beverage establishment such as meat markets or
				wine stores. Typical activities contemplated by this classification include
				maintenance and security of the facility.
This classification excludes establishments engaged in
				fruit/vegetable freezer operations which are to be reported separately in
				classification 3902; establishments engaged in cold storage warehouse
				operations which are to be reported separately in classification 4404; general
				merchandise warehouses (not cold storage) which are to be reported separately
				in classification 2102; mini-storage warehouses which are to be reported
				separately in classification 4910; and field bonded warehouses which are to be
				reported in classification 2008.
Special note
:
The distinction
				between this classification (4401) and cold storage warehouse operations (4404)
				is that classification 4404 contemplates a warehouse type facility which stores
				general merchandise of commercial enterprises such as manufacturers and
				wholesalers as opposed to classification 4401 which rents lockers out to
				individuals for storage of personal items.

4402-00 Ice: Manufacturing or harvesting
Applies to establishments engaged in the manufacture of ice or
				the harvesting of naturally occurring ice from frozen bodies of water such as
				lakes or ponds. Ice is made by treating, forming, and freezing water in
				refrigeration compressor systems. The ice blocks may be scored, cut or sawed,
				then left in blocks or crushed and bagged. Refrigeration systems are generally
				freezer coils or pipes running through or around tanks, or refrigerated vaults.
				Other equipment includes, but is not limited to, tanks, tin molds of various
				pound sizes or shapes, filtering systems, ice cube making systems which consist
				of water tanks, tubing and cutting blades, conveyors, incline screws, holding
				bins, bagging machines, winches, and forklifts. Ice harvesting is the cutting
				of natural ice from lakes, ponds, or other bodies of water that have frozen
				over to a suitable thickness and storing it in refrigerated warehouses. Ice
				manufacturers and harvesters either deliver their ice directly to their
				customers or sell it to ice dealers.
This classification excludes ice dealers who are to be reported
				separately in classification 4402-02 and manufacturers of "dry ice" who are to
				be reported separately in classification 3701.
4402-02 Ice dealers
Applies to establishments engaged as dealers of ice
				manufactured or harvested by others. Ice dealers either pick up ice directly
				from manufacturers and deliver it, or store it in their own refrigerated
				warehouses or ice stations prior to delivery to their customers. Refrigerated,
				insulated trucks and trailers are used to deliver ice. Customers may include,
				but not be limited to, restaurants, lounges, service stations, grocery and
				convenience stores. Ice dealers may also own coin-operated dispensing machines,
				at various locations, which they refill.
This classification excludes establishments engaged in the
				manufacture of ice in refrigerated systems and the harvesting of natural ice
				which are to be reported separately in classification 4402-00 and
				establishments engaged in the manufacture of "dry ice" which are to be reported
				separately in classification 3701.

				facility for general merchandise. These establishments do not own equity in the
				merchandise they store. The cold storage facility, which is maintained through
				a mechanical refrigeration process, typically stores items such as, but not
				limited to, food products, furs, and pharmaceuticals. Work contemplated by this
				classification includes maintenance and security of the facility, incidental
				repackaging, and loading and unloading of the warehoused items when performed
				by employees of an employer having operations subject to this
				classification.

				seamless pipe and tubing involving either a hot or cold drawing process or roll
				forming and machine welding processes, as well as flexible steel tubing used

				state in furnaces, then rolled or spun in rolling machines and a pipe or tube
				is drawn. Tubing may be annealed (fed through a furnace then slowly cooled to
				strengthen and reduce brittleness). In the roll forming method flat sheets of
				iron or steel are bent in brake presses or other rolling or bending machinery,
				then the edges are welded together to form the pipe or tube. This
				classification also includes metal ejection molding in which raw scrap and pig
				iron is melted, forced into casting machines, and cast in high speed revolving
				flasks of various shapes depending on the product being produced. When
				finished, products are ejected from the molds. They may be further processed by
				annealing, tumbling, deburring and grinding, and cleaned in acid baths.
