Fall hazards are one of the Occupational Safety and Health Administration’s (OSHA) most top cited violations for roofing contractors, and 2022 was no different, resulting in hefty fines and, in some cases, tragic consequences.
RC examined the penalties proposed by OSHA to roofing companies in 2022 to see which contractors faced the heaviest tolls for violations. For this list, we considered both the dollar amount as well as any deaths. As a result, some entries higher on the list have lower penalty amounts than those below them due to fatal injuries.
