Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 001 Hazard:
29 CFR 1910.23(c)(1): (1) Rungs and steps of portable metal ladders are corrugated, knurled, dimpled, coated with skid-resistant material, or otherwise treated to minimize the possibility of slipping; a. On or about September 29, 2017, located at the Assembler on Line 1 there was a portable ladder that was used for employees to climb to remove jammed caps out of a chute conveyor. The ladder was missing its fourth rung and replaced with a section of a broom handle that was smooth with no means of skid-resistant material, thereby exposing the employee to a fall hazard of approximately four feet.
