Text For Citation: 02 Item/Group: 001 Hazard:
29 CFR 1926.501(b)(13): Each employee(s) engaged in residential construction activities 6 feet (1.8 m) or more above lower levels were not protected by guardrail systems, safety net system, or personal fall arrest system, nor were employee(s) provided with an alternative fall protection measure under another provision of paragraph 1926.501 (b): The employer does not protect each employee engaged in residential construction activities 6 feet or more above lower levels. This most recently occurred on November 4, 2014, at the above addressed jobsite. Employees engaged in residential roofing activities were not protected from falling, thereby exposing employees to fall hazards between thirteen (13) feet six (6) inches and twenty-two (22) feet six (6) inches. To abate this hazard in the future, the employer must ensure that its employees performing roofing work are protected from falls, and that no employee is allowed onto a roof more than six feet high without adequate fall protection.
