Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 001 Hazard:
OSH ACT of 1970 Section (5)(a)(1): The employer does not furnish to each of his employees employment and a place of employment which are free from the recognized hazards of falling from a personnel work platform which are causing or likely to cause death or serious physical harm to employees. The employer exposes its employees to fall hazards. This violation was observed on or about December 1, 2015, at the site, where an employee was raised up to approximately 17 feet high by a Skytrak Model 8042 rough terrain forklift. Pursuant to 29 C.F.R. 1903.19, within ten (10) calendar days of the date of this citation, the employer must submit documentation, including describing the steps that it is taking to ensure that forklift operators remain in the cab and in direct line of sight of employees who are lifted on approved work platforms.
