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 fall hazard. On or about March 17, 2010, an employee climbed up the side and to the top of a trench box approximately 15 feet above the ground to secure a wire rope sling to the lifting points without fall protection. The trench box was being unloaded by the excavation crew on site with an excavator that had a sling attached beneath the bucket with a shackle. Among others, one feasible and acceptable means of abatement would be to work from an extension ladder to attach the sling hooks to the lifting points.
