Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 001 Hazard:
29 CFR 1926.21(b)(2):The employer did not instruct each employee in the recognition and avoidance of unsafe condition(s) and the regulation(s) applicable to his work environment to control or eliminate any hazard(s) or other exposure to illness or injury: The employer is failing to protect employees from struck-by and cave-in hazards while in excavations. This was most recently documented on or about July 02, 2021 at Underground Specialists, Inc. jobsite located at 2015 Andover Dr. Garden City, Kansas. The employer did not ensure that employees were adequately trained to recognize and avoid unsafe conditions while working on the site. Employees were exposed to various hazards related to working in a Type C soil excavation to include cave-in, struck-by, and ladder hazards.
