29 CFR 1926.501(b)(13): Each employee engaged in residential construction activities 6 feet or more above lower levels was not protected by guardrail systems, safety net systems, or personal fall arrest systems, nor did the employer demonstrate that it is infeasible or creates a greater hazard to use these systems and develop and implement a fall protection plan which meets the requirements of paragraph (k) of section 1926.502. a) Worksite, 1068 Mecox Rd. Bridgehampton NY - Employees were not provided with a means of fall protection while installing floor joists on a two story residential home, approximately 10ft above the basement below; on or about 1/6/15.
