An employee shall not be permitted to approach within 50 feet of the helicopter

shall ensure that, whenever approaching or leaving a helicopter which has its
blades rotating, all employees shall remain in full view of the pilot and keep
in a crouched position. An employee shall not be permitted to work in the area
