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: At the job site, located at 3057 Springdale Ave, Springdale, Arkansas, employees of a sub-contractor were using a wooden job-made ladder without the filler blocks inserted between the rungs to support the cleats nor were the rungs recessed, exposing the employees to the hazards of falls from elevation. Among other methods, one feasible and acceptable abatement method to correct this hazard is to conform to the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) A14.4.4.4- 1968 which states: "Wood cleats shall be inset into side rails not less than 1/2 inch or shall be attached directly to the edge of the side rails, in which case filler blocks of the thickness of the cleats shall be securely attached to the edge of the rail for the full length between cleats, or equivalent construction"
