Common use of Fall Protection Clause in Contracts

Fall Protection. a) On all BE&K construction projects, one hundred percent (100%) fall protection is required when working more than six feet (6’) above the next lowest level, whether through installation of railing systems, use of fall protection harnesses and lanyards, or any other OSHA approved method. On maintenance projects, the fall protection height requirements may be four feet (4’). b) When erecting or working on steel structures, the preferred method is to pre-install railing systems and other fall protection devices such as life-lines that facilitate tie-off. The first access for initial connection of steel beams should be in a JLG-type bucket lift but it may be conducted by climbing vertical beams if tied-off to a retractable lifeline. Subsequent access to steel for bolt-up must be by personal lifting devices such as stairs, JLG-type bucket lifts, ladders, or scaffolds. When on steel, one hundred percent (100%) tie-off is always required when above six feet. (6’) c) When erecting or dismantling scaffolds on a construction Site, one hundred percent (100%) fall protection is required above six feet (6’). On maintenance sites, fall protection may be required above four feet (4’). d) Fall protection harnesses must be worn and a retractable lifeline used anytime a worker is climbing or descending on scaffold ladders that are more than 15 feet above the ground of the next lowest level. The retractable lanyard must be attached to a suitable anchor- point. e) When working on incomplete scaffolds, such as those that are “BE&K yellow-tagged”, 100% tie-off is required. f) Fall protection harnesses and lanyards must be inspected by a competent person monthly. g) When in JLG-type baskets, fall protection must be worn and all workers tied-off. h) Roof leading edge protection must be provided when working within six feet (6’) of the edge when that edge is more than six feet (6’) above the next lowest level.
