Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 002F Hazard:

29 CFR 1926.451(h)(1): Each employee on a scaffold was not provided with additional protection from falling hand tools, debris, and other small objects through the installation of toeboards, screens, guardrail systems, or through the erection of debris nets, catch platforms, or canopy structures that contain or deflect the falling objects. For falling objects too large, heavy, or massive to be contained or deflected, the employer did not place and secure such potential falling objects away from the edge of the surface from which they could fall. On or about February 8, 2022, on the Northeast side of the site employees were performing masonry work utilizing scaffolding that had no means of protecting employees from falling objects, tools or other materials.
