Why This Is the Correct Answer
Stairways and access routes must be kept protected and clear for employee use.
Why the Other Options Are Wrong
Option B: caution-tape the side
caution-tape the side may relate to another site control, but it does not remove or guard the stairway safety control exposure being tested.
Option C: stay to the inside
stay to the inside may relate to another site control, but it does not remove or guard the stairway safety control exposure being tested.
Option D: a toeboard only
a toeboard only may relate to another site control, but it does not remove or guard the stairway safety control exposure being tested.
Memory Technique
If Manager Checks can still reach the worker, the control is decoration.
Reference Hint
Open-book path: tab OSHA 29 CFR 1926 to Subpart X, 1926.1052 Stairways; verify the OSHA safety threshold or jobsite control before answering.
