General-duty citation text

HAR 12-60-2(a)(3) was violated because:
The employer allowed his employee to climb up a 20-foot extension ladder
and stand on the
top rung of an unsecured ladder while throwing his climbing rope into the
crotch of the limb.
The employee lost his balance and fell to the ground.
12-60-2(a)(3) states "Every employer shall provide safe work places and
practices by
elimination or reduction of existing or potential hazards.  Elimination of
existing or potential
hazards by design, process substitution, or other appropriate methods is
preferred because it
eliminates the need for further employee protection.  When elimination is
not feasible,
reduction of existing or potential hazards to acceptable levels, using
methods
such as
engineering or administrative controls, isolation, or guarding, shall be
promptly used.  When
these methods are inadequate to reach acceptable levels, personal
protective equipment shall
be provided and used."
