Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 003 Hazard:
29 CFR 1926.652(c): Design of support systems, shield systems, and other protective systems. The employer or its designee does not select and construct support systems, shield systems, and other protective systems with designs in accordance with the requirements of paragraph (c)(1); or in the alternative, paragraph (c)(2); or in the alternative, paragraph (c)(3); or in the alternative, paragraph (c)(4) as follows: (a)SiteWorks Inc. at the intersection of 1st Avenue and Academy Street, Lennox, SD 57039: The employer routinely fails to ensure that each employee conducting work in an excavation was protected by protective systems that were selected from, and in accordance with manufacturer's tabulated data, other tabulated data, or design by a registered professional engineer. This was demonstrated on or about and at times prior to June 9, 2023. This condition exposes employees to cave-in and struck-by hazards when performing work inside of protective systems which were not evaluated by a registered professional engineer.
