What this inspection record means

OSHA opens inspections for many reasons — routine scheduling under a national or local emphasis program, an employee complaint or referral, or a follow-up after a reported injury. Opening or conducting an inspection is not itself an allegation or a finding that this employer broke any rule; any findings appear as the citations listed below, and citations can be contested, reduced, or withdrawn.

General-duty citation text

Section 5(a)(1) of the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970: The
employer did not
furnish employment and 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 the condition(s) listed below:
On or about March 15, 2011, or at times prior thereto, at the job site,
employees  were
observed climbing on guardrails of a scissor lift in order to access a
steel frame building
approximately 27'10" high.  This exposed employees to the hazard of
falling.
A recognized and feasible means of abatement to correct this hazard is to
ensure that
employees stay within the boundaries of the guardrails and do not sit,
stand, or climb on the
guardrails in accordance with manufacturer's instructions.
