Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 001 Hazard: FALLING
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 were free from recognized hazards that were causing or likely to cause death or serious physical harm to employees in that a passenger was exposed to the hazard of falling from the equipment. At the repaving jobsite in Ina Illinois, two supervisors were allowed to ride in an Ingersoll- Rand ST-80 Tandem Roller while conducting training with an inexperienced operator. The Ingersoll-Rand ST-80 was operated without an approved location for a passenger to ride on the machine. Among other methods, one feasible and acceptable method to correct the hazard is to ensure that supervisors conduct training from a safe location near the machine. ABATEMENT CERTIFICATION IS REQUIRED FOR THIS ITEM IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE REQUIREMENTS OF 29 CFR 1903.19(c).S
