What sort of fall protection system or program is required for workers that spend 4 hours or more on a platform every two weeks?
This is controlled by OSHA Instruction 01-01-013 that indicates a guardrail is necessary. For work less than 4 hours, an alternative fall protection system is OK. Use of the proposed general industry standard dated 4/10/90 would be acceptable. Washington State has a connection to the equivalent of 1910.66 App. C (soon to beome a horizontal standard in that state, like ladders). You also can use 1910.66 App. C as policy.
