Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 002 Hazard:
29 CFR 1910.28(b)(3)(iii):29 CFR 1910.28(b)(3)(iii): The employer did not ensure that each employee is protected from falling into a stairway floor hole by a fixed guardrail system on all exposed sides, except at the stairway entrance. However, for any stairway used less than once per day where traffic across the stairway floor hole prevents the use of a fixed guardrail system (e.g., holes located in aisle spaces), the employer may protect employees from falling into the hole by using a hinged floor hole cover that meets the criteria in � 1910.29 and a removable guardrail system on all exposed sides, except at the entrance to the stairway. At the worksite located at 618 Commercial Street, Atchison, Kansas; employees engaged in restaurant activities were not protected from fall hazards in that approximately 4 feet, 5 inches of a stairway floor hole is missing a guardrail system.
