A two-point adjustable suspension scaffold is 18 feet above the lower level. Its guardrail was removed for loading. Before workers resume using it, what correction is required?
Correct Answer
B) Restore the guardrail and maintain the required personal fall arrest protection.
At more than 10 feet, a two-point adjustable suspension scaffold requires both a personal fall arrest system and a guardrail system.
