Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 001 Hazard:
29 CFR 1910.28(b)(1)(iii)(A): When the employer can demonstrate that the use of fall protection systems is not feasible on the working side of a platform used at a loading rack, loading dock, or teeming platform, work is done without a fall protection system when the work operation for which fall protection is infeasible is not in process. On or about February 8, 2023 the employer did not ensure that effective fall protection measures were in place on loading racks when active loading was not in process. Employees work from the elevated work platforms which contain an open side for placement of product and material pallets. When active loading is not taking place employees are exposed to a fall hazard of 6- 6/1/2 feet to the ground below. The loading racks/ platforms are located in Kitchen #1 Raw Side.
