Does OSHA require that the edge of a platform be marked?

RegSense Walking Working Surfaces Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), DOL English Hazcom Labeling Scaffolding and Mobile Work Platform Surfaces Safety & Health Construction Safety General Industry Safety Signs and Markings Best Results FAQ Hazard Communication Signs and Markings Focus Area USA

OSHA does not specifically require warning tape or colored edges on platforms, ramps, or runways. However, if platforms, ramps, or runways pose a striking against, stumbling, falling, tripping, or “caught in between” hazard, it may be required that an employer use a yellow marking to designate caution and for marking physical hazards. See 1910.144(a)(3).

The American National Standards Institute (ANSI) Z535.1-1998, Safety Color Code, recommends black, white, yellow, or a combination of black and yellow for “traffic markings.” However, ANSI Z535.1-2002 and later editions of ANSI Z535.1 no longer contain safety color meanings.
