Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 001A Hazard:
29 CFR 1926.502(d)(6)(i): A snaphook not of the locking type was engaged directly to webbing, rope or wire rope; a) Worksite - The employer does not ensure that appropriate fall protection equipment or methods are in proper use. This violation was most recently observed at 1325 Chelsea Drive, Bethlehem, PA on June 22, 2016, when employees engaged in framing work were working on the second floor top plate, approximately 9 to 33 feet above a lower level, while having their vertical lifeline hooked directly to itself. The employer's ongoing obligation is to ensure that the necessary fall protection equipment is properly implemented for the duration of the fall hazard.
