Text For Citation: 02 Item/Group: 001A Hazard:
29 CFR 1926.651(i)(3): Sidewalks, pavements, or appurtenant structures are undermined and a support system or another method is not provided to protect employees from the possible collapse of such structures: a. Employees working in an approximately 10 foot deep excavation are not protected from structural failure of the overhead pavement by the use of a support system or other method. The employer fails to assure effective protections against structural failures as required by the standard, as demonstrated on August 22, 2017, when employees are working under the pavement that is undermined without a support system or other methods, exposing employees to a crush hazard. Jax Utilities Management, Inc. was previously cited for a violation of this occupational safety and health standard 1926.651(i)(3), which was contained in OSHA inspection number 940569, citation number 1, item number 4, and was affirmed as a final order on November 18, 2013, with respect to a workplace located at 3815 Miruelo Circle North, Jacksonville, FL, 32257.
