Construction scaffolding in Corona is regulated by Cal/OSHA under Title 8 California Code of Regulations Construction Safety Orders, primarily Article 21. All scaffolds must be designed to support at least 4 times the maximum intended load. Scaffolds over 6 feet require fall protection including guardrails or personal fall arrest systems.

Scaffolds must be inspected by a competent person before each work shift, and tagged appropriately (green, yellow, or red) to indicate condition.

Scaffolds over 125 feet, or unique configurations, require engineering review and signed plans. Public protection on sidewalks adjacent to scaffolding requires overhead protection canopies and pedestrian routing. Encroachment into the public right-of-way requires a Public Works encroachment permit specifying duration and traffic control. Workers must be trained in scaffold use, recognition of hazards, and fall protection. Cal/OSHA inspectors may conduct random site visits and respond to complaints with citations and stop-work orders for serious violations.
