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 an
employee in that an
employee was exposed to a fall hazard:
(a) Facility:  On or about June 11, 2008, an employee was exposed to an
approximately 12 foot
fall hazard while he was power washing the front of a building.  The
employee was standing on
a wooden pallet that was raised up by a powered industrial truck
(forklift).
Among other methods, one feasible and acceptable means of abatement would
be to have an
employee work from either a scissor lift or an aerial lift to power wash
the front of the building
