Contractor Cited by OSHA Following Fatal Workplace Fall – Part 2
The following are details about the alleged willful OSHA safety violation:
The employer allegedly failed to protect workers engaged in residential construction activities at a height of 6 feet or more above lower levels. The employer is required to protect employees who are working at such heights by providing a personal fall arrest system, safety net system, or guardrail system. In addition, employees were not provided with an alternative fall protection measure. More specifically, on or about 9/26/15, an employee was exposed to a fall hazard of about 19.6 feet from the ground level while working from a tie-beam installing a rake beam because no fall protection equipment had been provided. The proposed penalty for this alleged OSHA violation is: $49,000.

Roadway incidents that involve motorized land vehicles are also leading causes of workplace injuries. In 2013, of the 105 worker fatalities that occurred at road construction sites, 69% were pedestrian workers killed by motor vehicles. Texas is the top ranking state for roadway construction worker fatalities, followed by Florida, Illinois, Pennsylvania, and California. The following are safety tips for road construction zones:
Work zones should include proper traffic controls. There should be advanced warning for motorists, letting them know that a transition in driving conditions is up ahead. Traffic control devices usually include barrels, cones, signs, and barriers.
Proper safety equipment should be worn, such as hard hates, highly visible clothing, steel-toed boots, and hearing protection when noise levels are hazardous. Highly visible clothing should be bright fluorescent yellow/lime or orange.
Workers should always be alert to their surroundings and avoid walking into the swing radius of heavy equipment or behind vehicles that are backing up. Spotters should be utilized when vehicles are moving in reverse.
Dump trucks, excavators, rollers, and pavers are just a few of the heavy equipment vehicles that move inside work zones. Pedestrian workers should be careful to maintain visual contact, and not just assumed visual contact, with the drivers of the machines.
Communication in daily safety meetings is a good way to ensure a safer work environment. Make sure all workers have the proper personal protective equipment for the jobs being done.
