Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 001 Hazard:
OSH ACT of 1970 Section (5)(a)(1): Section 5(a)(1) of the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970: The employer did not furnish employment and a place of employment which was free from recognized hazards that were causing or likely to cause death or serious physical harm to employees, in that employees were exposed to fall, struck-by and crushed-by hazards from structural collapse: a. On or about November 8, 2021, and at times prior, at the commercial construction site in Orange City, Florida: the sixty-six 70-foot span roof trusses were not braced to resist out of plane buckling, leaning and/or collapse due to lack of proper top chord, web member and bottom chord bracing, exposing employees to a struck-by and collapse hazard. b. On or about November 4, 2021, and at times prior, at the commercial construction site in Orange City, Florida: the crew used a 12-foot long spreader bar to hoist, fly and set sixty-six 70-foot span roof trusses, allowing the truss members to bend lateral while being installed, exposing employees to a struck-by and collapse hazard. c.
