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 fall hazards from elevations. Museum of Fine Arts, 465 Huntington Avenue, Boston, MA: Employees installing and rigging a two-point suspension scaffold for building and window washing were not tied off while walking and working on the roof, creating a fall hazard of up to fifty feet from the roof. Among other methods, one feasible and acceptable method of abatement to correct this hazard includes, but is not limited to, ensuring employees are trained in recognizing and avoiding fall hazards associated with roofs and other elevations, and instructed in the procedures to be followed to minimize these hazards and ensure that safe working practices are observed.
