Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 001 Hazard:
29 CFR 1926.251(a)(1): Defective rigging equipment was not removed from service: The employer is failing to protect employees from struck-by hazards. This was most recently documented on or about December 7, 2018 at the establishment located at 7436 1000 Road, in Fredonia, Kansas. Employees were exposed to struck-by hazards in that rigging equipment, a 20 ft. two-leg wire rope sling, used for lifting trusses was not removed from service after deficiencies were discovered. Deficiencies included nails in the eyes of the safety latches causing the latches to be partially off and open, a kink in the wire rope, exposure of a ribbon, and a broken crown wire.
