Here’s a Top-10 List that you don’t want to be a part of. 

Each year, OSHA publishes a top-10 list of the most frequently cited standards for the previous year.

1. Scaffolding, general requirements, construction
2. Fall protection, construction
3. Hazard communication standard, general industry
4. Respiratory protection, general industry 
5. Control of hazardous energy (lockout/tagout), general industry
6. Ladders, construction
7. Powered industrial trucks, general industry
8. Electrical, wiring methods, components and equipment, general industry
9. Electrical systems design, general requirements, general industry
10. Fall protection, training requirements

If your business is involved in any of these areas, it’s vitally important to remain vigilant when working with – or under – these conditions. Make sure your managers, foremen, employees and workers are acutely aware of OSHA regulations and standards, but more importantly, consistently follow those directives.

Stay safe!
