Good Housekeeping for Surfaces
The employer must make sure that walking working surface conditions are clean and dry when possible. Drainage or other safety systems are required for wet surfaces. Walking-working surfaces must be kept free of hazards such as sharp or protruding objects, corrosion, ice, and others. Surfaces must support the weight needed and have a safe way to come and go from the working area.
Safe walking working surfaces also need regular inspections and maintenance. Hazardous conditions must be fixed before the surface is loaded or worked on again. If this affects the structural integrity, a qualified person must supervise or perform any repairs.
Wear Fall Protection Equipment
These working surfaces include portable ladders, elevator shafts, and communication towers. (OSHA 1910.23). Uncommon ladders, such as; mobile ladder stands with special design needs, and step bolts used in manhole entries are explained in OSHA 1910.24. All OSHA walking-working surface have access needs, including ramps, stairways, ship stairs, alternating tread stairs, and standard stair design (including rise & run measurements of the steps based on the stair angle to the horizontal). These are explained in OSHA 1910.25.
Barricade Work Zone for Safety
Dockboards are also classified as walking-working surfaces. Information such as use, misuse, and intended loads are explained in OSHA 1910.26. Scaffolding and rope descent systems (RDS) (a suspension system that allows a worker to come down from a scaffold in a safe manner) are in OSHA 1910.27.
In OSHA 1910.28, just as in 1926.501, the employer not only has a duty to maintain fall protection safety standards, but unlike 1926.501, they also have a duty to provide for dropped object protections (OSHA 1910.29). This can be done by the use of catch platforms, tethers on tools, toe boards on scaffolds, and other mitigations.
Safety industry fact:
Over 29% of accidents reported
in the workplace consist of
slips, trips and falls
making them the most common cause of workplace injuries.
