Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 003 Hazard:
29 CFR 1910.30(a)(1): (a) Fall hazards. (1) Before any employee is exposed to a fall hazard, the employer must provide training for each employee who uses personal fall protection systems or who is required to be trained as specified elsewhere in this subpart. Employers must ensure employees are trained in the requirements of this paragraph on or before May 17, 2017. Operators located in the distribution center were not trained in the nature of the fall hazards in their work area, how to recognize them, or procedures to be followed to minimize those hazards. Employees were exposed to fall hazards in excess of 4 feet while clearing jams and arranging boxes on the Palletizer #1 and sorting conveyors.
