How do you tie off a ladder, it you cannot climb the ladder until it is tied
off?

Subject: OSHA Tie off requrements
Hey everyone,
We have a general contractor's safety consultant requiring us to tie off if
our feet are more than 6'-0" above the ground when we are working off of a
step ladder (our fitters feet are at 8'-0" off the ground on a 10' ladder).
My recollection is this isn't an OSHA requirement, as they assert, but more
of a general contractors requirement, at least as it relates to step
ladders. Does anyone know for sure one way or another if this specifically
required by OSHA and where I could find that text?
Thank you in advance!
