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 struck-by hazards from vehicle traffic in and around road work zone. At the intersection of Alton Gloor Road & Paredes Line Road, a safe work zone was not established. Employees parked a cable truck on the shoulder of Paredes Line Road and did not have directional traffic signage in place. One feasible means of abatement would be to ensure provisions are in place for worker protection at roadside work zones, such as establishing a traffic control plan according to the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices.
