Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 003A Hazard:
29 CFR 1926.503(a)(1): The employer did not provide a training program for each employee who might be exposed to fall hazards that shall enable each employee to recognize the hazards of falling and/or shall train each employee in the procedures to be followed in order to minimize these hazards: a) The employer does not protect its employees from the fall hazards inherent in performing roofing work. This was most recently observed on or about July 11, 2014 at a worksite located at 15 Cottage St., Easthampton, MA in that James J. Welch & Co., Inc. failed to provide a training program for each employee who was exposed to fall hazards while roofing that would enable those employees to recognize those hazards and the procedures to be followed in order to minimize those hazards. To abate this violation, the employer must provide a training program for each employee who might be exposed to fall hazards while in their employ. Specific abatement documentation that this violation has been corrected must be provided within 10 days of the abatement in accordance with 29 CFR 1903.19(d)(1).
