Hi guys,
Taking on a small job tearing down a house in a rather busy part of town with lots of eyes. I have my trenching and excavation safety cert. for OSHA just wondering besides the obvious work safety and health issues on the job what could be done to prevent fines from coming my way should osha stick there nose in the job. Things Im not sure of is guarding on the machine, do they look for/require it on an enclosed cab excavator. I know it would be a good idea but we do so few demo jobs it really wouldn't be something I would want to purchase if I could avoid it for now.
Things that are being done
-Safety fence
-hard hats googles
-safety vests
-gloves
-no one in the area of demolition aside from the operator
-Asbestos is being abated
Anything else?
Thanks!
