Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 002A Hazard:
29 CFR 1926.20(b)(2): The employer did not initiate and maintain a safety program which provides for frequent and regular inspections of jobsites, materials, and equipment to be made by a competent person: On or about October 15, 2012, the employer failed to inspect and implement safety precautions for a small construction site with active heavy equipment such as dump trucks and excavator. The jobsite did not have the following considerations for safety: 1. Designated danger areas with barricades to prohibit workers on foot and prevent equipment from striking workers. 2. Heavy equipment inspections, such as the excavator, for working seat belts, clear windshields and warning decals posted as required in the operations manual. The warning decals on the back of the swing structure of the excavator were missing.
