Last week we asked if you could identify the hazards that would be modern OSHA violations in this historic construction photo of the original Willamette River Bridge. Congratulations to an anonymous commenter who identified several that we found plus pointed out additional hazards.
Please see below for answers.
1. All workers are wearing hard hats made of conductive material.
2. None of the workers is wearing a fall protection harness.
3. The workers are not wearing gloves during concrete placement.
4. There are no fire protection (“No Smoking”) signs near the fuel can.
5. There’s no fire extinguisher in the area near fuel storage.
6. There’s no guardrail at the leading edge of the deck.
7. Materials litter and block the walkway.
8. The scaffolding is not complete in the middle of the walkway.
9. The ladder is not 36 inches above the top of the wall.
10. The scaffolding is not compliant to current standards: It’s not cleated, and the wrong grade of lumber is being used for the scaffolding planks.
11. There’s no guardrail on the scaffolding.
12. The worker is not wearing hearing protection during concrete vibration.
13. The worker is smoking while working with concrete and near flammable fuel storage.
