General-duty citation text
Section 5(a)(1) of the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970: The employer did not furnish employment and a place of employment which were free from recognized hazards that were causing or likely to cause death or serious physical harm to employees in that employees were exposed to: (a) The hazard of falling while working on or about 7/13/93 from a Workforce GAT #19 personnel lift. An outrigger on the lift was not fully extended and an intermediate railing of the guardrail was wired to the top rail. This occurred at the north side of the first floor during plastering operations. Among other methods, one feasible and acceptable abatement method to correct this hazard is to use all outriggers and have standard railings.
