A Deltona trench has a ladder 29 ft from the employee work location. What access status should be reported?
Correct Answer
D) add safe access
Trench access must be located so employees do not travel more than the allowed distance to reach safe egress.
Why This Is the Correct Answer
Trench access must be located so employees do not travel more than the allowed distance to reach safe egress.
Why the Other Options Are Wrong
Option A: report access as adequate
report access as adequate may relate to another site control, but it does not remove or guard the trench access spacing exposure being tested.
Option B: a second ladder, same end
a second ladder, same end may relate to another site control, but it does not remove or guard the trench access spacing exposure being tested.
Option C: climb the trench wall
climb the trench wall may relate to another site control, but it does not remove or guard the trench access spacing exposure being tested.
Memory Technique
Name the harm before the guard; report, adequate, second cannot stand in for Competent Person.
Reference Hint
Open-book path: tab OSHA 29 CFR 1926 to Subpart P, 1926.651(c)(2) Means of egress; verify the OSHA safety threshold or jobsite control before answering.
