Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 002 Hazard:
29 CFR 1926.501(b)(13): Each employee(s) engaged in residential construction activities 6 feet (1.8 m) or more above lower levels were not protected by guardrail systems, safety net system, or personal fall arrest system, nor were employee(s) provided with an alternative fall protection measure under another provision of paragraph 1926.501 (b): Employees were exposed to fall hazards when a personal fall arrest system was not provided to employees working above 6 feet in residential construction. This was most recently documented at 5910 NW Cookingham Road Kansas City, MO 64164. Employees were removing existing shingles from a roof of a single story house. Employees were working over the leading edge of the house approximately 9 feet in the front of the house and 15 feet at the side of the house without the use of any form of fall protection.
