Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 001C Hazard:
29 CFR 1910.29(b)(13)(i): Guardrail opening that serves as a point of access did not have a self-closing gate that slides or swings away from the hole, and is equipped with a top rail and midrail or equivalent intermediate member that meets the requirements in paragraph (b) of this section; or is offset to prevent an employee from walking or falling into the hole opening. (a) Fixed Ladderway floor opening on the platform adjacent to the 3rd dip tank was not guarded by a swinging gate or offset so that a person could not walk directly into the opening. This exposed employees to a fall hazard of six (6) feet.
