Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 001A Hazard:
29 CFR 1910.28(b)(1)(i): The employer did not ensure that each employee on a walking-working surface with an unprotected side or edge that was 4 feet (1.2 m) or more above a lower level was protected from falling by one or more of the following: Guardrail systems, safety net systems, or personal fall arrest systems: The employer is failing to ensure employees are protected from fall hazards associated with walking out on a balcony that does not have a proper guardrail. This was most recently evident during the inspection conducted on March 14, 2019 at a worksite located at 927 7th St., David City, NE 68632. Two employees routinely use the balcony to get to the roof of the facility. The balcony has a parapet wall that only extends approximately 1.75 feet high exposing employees to a fall hazard.
