OSHA Fines Are No Joke: How to Avoid Costly Fall Protection Violations!! Are you aware of the Syracuse foundry that was recently slammed with $1 million in OSHA penalties for repeated fall protection violations—after already racking up 60+ violations in 2019. If your facility isn't proactive, violations can stack up fast, leading to serious fines, increased liability, and higher safety risks. Avoid these costly mistakes: ✅ Conduct regular self-audits to catch safety gaps before OSHA does. ✅ Upgrade guardrails, safety gates, and fall protection equipment before an inspector flags them. ✅ Train workers on compliance, harness use, and hazard awareness. ✅ Stay ahead of new OSHA regulations to prevent repeated violations. Don’t wait for a citation to act—protect your team and your bottom line. 💡 Learn how Fabenco’s OSHA-compliant safety solutions can help → https://lnkd.in/ebTS3FU9 We're here to help with complimentary Facility and Rooftop Safety Assessments ~ > Contact Paul.Sperling@AlimakGroup.com. #facilitysafety #workersafety #safety #osha #FabencobyTractel
