Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 002A Hazard:
29 CFR 1926.651(j)(2):Protection was not provided by placing and keeping excavated or other materials or equipment at least 2 feet (.61m) from the edge of excavations, or by the use of retaining devices that were sufficient to prevent materials or equipment from falling or rolling into excavations, or by a combination of both if necessary. The employer is failing to protect employees from struck-by and collapse hazards associated with trenching activities. This was most recently documented on December 29, 2021, at the residential construction site located at 600 Hillside Dr, Grain Valley, Missouri. Employees were working in a trench with the spoil pile located at the edge of the trench.
