Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 003 Hazard:

29 CFR 1926.50(c): In the absence of an infirmary, clinic, hospital, or physician, that is reasonably accessible in terms of time and distance to the worksite, which is available for the treatment of injured employees, a person who has a valid certificate in first-aid training from the U.S. Bureau of Mines, the American Red Cross, or equivalent training that can be verified by documentary evidence, shall be available at the worksite to render first aid. The employer is failing to provide employees with immediate medical treatment in the event of an injury as required in this subpart. This was most recently evident during the inspection of the facility located at NE Corner of Bennet Rd and 190th Street, Bennet, NE 68317, where the employer has employees working on a remote construction site where the nearest medical assistance was greater than 10 minute response time and there was not a certified first aid trained employee or personnel on the job site in the event of an employee was injured and required treatment as was seen in this fatality accident.
