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 broken bones due to hazards of falling from a height
approximately 24 feet high
while operating a aerial lift without a body harness and standing/working
off the side railings
of the lift:
Among other methods, one feasible and acceptable abatement method to
correct this hazard is
to provide body harnesses so employees can have a means of fall protection
and instruct
employees not to stand/work off of the railings on the aerial lift.
