Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 001 Hazard:
29 CFR 1910.28(b)(1)(i)Employer did not ensure that each employee on a walking-working surface with an unprotected side or edge that was more than 4 feet (1.2 m) above a lower level was protected from falling: (a)Castlewood Farmers Elevator @ 210 South Oak Street, Castlewood, SD 57223: On or about and at times prior to November 27, 2020, the employer did not ensure that employees were protected from fall hazards associated with accessing the feed mill roof to add an extension to the existing fixed ladder and repair steel distributor cables. An employee working on the roof lost his footing due to slippery conditions associated with frost accumulation on a metal roof and subsequently slid off the edge and fell to the ground below. The employee was not utilizing a fall protection system while attempting to perform work-related activities on the roof. This condition exposed employees to a fall hazard of approximately 25 feet.
