USER TRAINING REQUIREMENTS (OSHA)
The employer must have all employees who work on scaffolds trained by a qualified person
Scaffold training for users must include:
Electrical, fall, falling objects hazards
How to handle electrical hazards, PFAS proper use and falling object prevention
Proper use of the scaffold and material handling on scaffolds
The load capacity and maximum intended load of the scaffold.

EXPLANATION OF THE SAFETY MAN’S ACTIONS:
Please note that "the proper use of the scaffold" is a requirement; which Foreman Door and his crew were using in order to access the upper level platform; but the NE corner access was missing a top rail, middle rail and the toe-board. Therefore I can't issue a safety citation to Qualified Doe because I did not see him using or erecting the said scaffold and there is no tag. I saw Foreman Door and his crew using it.
I believe that this issue should be taken to the attention of our Certified Safety Engineer who has the authority to establish a balanced decision on this matter.
