Summary Statement:
Unsafe side bin access. The ladder is too short to reach the access and is in bad repair. If the distance from the middle of the ladder rung to the edge of the opening is more than 12 inches, a work platform should be provided. If there is a drop of more than 4 feet from an opening above a surface, it needs to be guarded. Note also the disrepair of the bin seal.
