Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 002A Hazard:
29 CFR 1926.1053(b) Use. (5)(i):Non-self-supporting ladders shall be used at an angle such that the horizontal distance from the top support to the foot of the ladder is approximately one-quarter of the working length of the ladder (the distance along the ladder between the foot and the top support). On or about April 8 2025, the employer failed to ensure that a non-self-supporting extension ladder was positioned at the required 4 : 1 (one-quarter working-length) angle and on stable, level footing while an employee used it to install an exterior electrical receptacle on a newly constructed residence. As a result, the employee fell approximately 20 feet and required hospitalization.
