North Carolina General Statute 95-129(1) of the Occupational Safety
and Health Act of North Carolina:  The employer did not furnish to
each of his employees, conditions of 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)a fork lift truck was being used to lift workers to and
from the North side of the roof of a church sanctuary,
approximately 14 feet above the ground, on a 4 foot by 8
foot by 1/2 inch thick sheet of plywood which was not
secured to the lift truck, and which had no standard
rails.
Among other methods, one feasible and acceptable
abatement method to correct this hazard would be to

which could be secured to the fork lift truck, and which
would be equipped with a standard rail.ard
