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 26, 2022, at a jobsite located at W5835 Sweet William Dr. Appleton, Wisconsin; the 20' Werner aluminum extension ladder used to access the roof located on the northeastern side of the residence did not extend at least three feet past the landing exposing employees to slips and fall hazards.
