Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 003B Hazard:
29 CFR 1910.265(c)(4)(iv): Elevated walks. All elevated walks, runways, or platforms, if 4 feet or more from the floor level, shall be provided with a standard railing except on loading or unloading sides of platforms. If height exceeds 6 feet, a standard toe board also shall be provided to prevent material from rolling or falling off. a) Gregory Log and Lumber Ltd, located at 5545 County Road 68, Millersburg, OH 44654: On and or preceding March 17, 2020, the employer did not ensure that employees working on elevated walks, runways, or platforms were protected from falls. Employees used an elevated platform to access the control room for the de-barker machine where there was no railing on one side of the platform and no toe boards on any sides, thereby exposing employees to a 7 foot fall hazard.
