General-duty citation text
29 CFR 1926.1053(b)(1): When portable ladders are used for access to an upper landing surface, the ladder side rails shall extend at least 3 feet (.9 m) above the upper landing surface to which the ladder is used to gain access; or, when such an extension is not possible because of the ladder's length, then the ladder shall be secured at its top to a rigid support that will not deflect, and a grasping device, such as a grabrail, shall be provided to assist employees in mounting and dismounting the ladder. In no case shall the extension be such that ladder deflection under a load would, by itself, cause the ladder to slip off its support. On or about May 29, 2019, employees performing roofing installation on the upper level at a residential single family property were exposed to a fall of approximately 11 feet when the employer failed to ensure that the ladder used for access to the upper landing surface side rails extended at least 3 feet (.9 m) above the upper landing surface to which the ladder wass used to gain access. No abatement certification or documentation is required for this item.
