The United States Department of Labor, through its Occupational Safety and Health Administration (“OSHA”), investigated a construction site in Ponte Vedra, Florida, involving Respondent, Summit Contracting Group, Inc. (“Summit”), and subsequently issued a citation to Summit on September 12, 2018, under the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970 (the “Act”), 29 U.S.C. §§ 651-678. The citation asserted Summit committed a serious violation of the requirements of 29 C.F.R. § 1926.501(b)(13), one of OSHA’s fall protection standards, and proposed a penalty of $11,640. Summit timely contested the citation, and thereafter, the Secretary filed a formal complaint in the Commission seeking an order affirming the citation. A bench trial was held in February 2020, in Jacksonville, Florida.
