Mass Contractors cited by OSHA For Fall Protection Violations

Posted by Mark Paskell on Fri, Aug 30, 2013 @ 08:30 AM

OSHA in Region 1 (Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut, New Hampshire, Maine) has posted Massachusetts contractors who were cited for fall protection violations on the OSHA.Gov Data Enforcement page. fall protection violations             OSHA

In the following chart you can see the current fine amounts that are less than the original citation. OSHA commonly reduces the first cited fine amount to a lower figure. Following the fine amount you can see the Standard that was violated. You will see the most common standards violated are 19260501 (Duty to Have Fall Protection) and 19261053 (Ladders). Other commonly cited hazards are failure to provide head protection and a fall protection training program.

OSHA Safety Officers continue to focus primarily on fall protection enforcement due to the rash of injuries and deaths in the residential construction industry. OSHA finds these jobs through referrals, complaints and driving by job sites.
