Text For Citation: 02 Item/Group: 001 Hazard:
29 CFR 1926.501(b)(11): Each employee on a steep roof with unprotected sides and edges 6 feet (1.8 m) or more above lower levels was not protected from falling by guardrail systems with toeboards, safety net systems, or personal fall arrest systems: On or about July 27, 2018, the employer failed to ensure that employees who were working on a roof at a job site (Christ Church Episcopal, 21 Aurora St., Hudson OH) were protected from a fall from height hazard of approximately 30-40 feet. The roof had a pitch of 9/12 and employees were reroofing the entire facility so the heights varied. Employees were not wearing any personal fall protection harnesses nor was there any alternative fall protection system in place.
