Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 002 Hazard:
29 CFR 1926.451(f)(15)(i): A ladder was placed against a structure which was not a part of the scaffold, and the scaffold was not secured against the sideways thrust exerted by the ladder. On or about May22, 2013, and times prior thereto, two employees performing plastering work at heights greater than 10 feet from the ground were using a ladder to access a scaffold's platform. The ladder was placed against the building and the scaffold was not secured against the sideways thrust exerted by the ladder. This condition exposed employees to potential fall hazards.
