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 worker was observed being lowered into the 16 foot deep excavation in
the bucket of the track
hoe.  The worker is exposed to possible fall or struck-by injuries since
the worker could have
fallen out of the bucket and into the bottom of the excavation, therefore
either injured by the fall
or struck by the bucket of the excavator.  Feasible and acceptable means
to correct the hazard(s)
could include compliance with the Construction Industry Manufactures
Association (CIMA):
section 16, "Never allow anyone to ride the attachment or the load".  In
addition to this, have
readily accessible ladders whenever the excavation exceeds 4 feet in
depth, as required by 29
CFR 1926.651(c)(2).  0   0   y   0                                             L
