Four regional OSHA offices and the president of the Chicago Roofing Contractors Association became participants in a historic partnership geared towards a safer working environment.
Safety was on everyone’s mind as officials from four regional OSHA offices and the president of the Chicago Roofing Contractors Association became participants in a historic partnership geared towards a safer working environment for the thousands of area roofers who face on-the-job dangers.
The signing of the Chicagoland Roofing Safety Partnership took place at the monthly meeting of the CRCA board of directors at Maggiano’s Little Italy restaurant in Oakbrook, Ill. The program is one of the first of its kind in the country where a local trade organization has been joined with OSHA to implement a cooperative safety program that benefits contractors, government agencies and consumers.
