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 August 29, 2019, at 3295 Kemp Road, Beavercreek, a one-story commercial building, roofers removing shingles were using a metal extension ladder to ascend and descend from the roof and the metal ladder extended approximately 18 inches above the eave of the roof.
