The Occupational Safety and Health Administration has cited a Florida-based roofing contractor for exposing employees to fall hazards at a Jacksonville worksite, making it the fourth inspection since May 2022, where the contractor has been cited for violating safety regulations.
According to a release from OSHA, Brayden Roofing Specialists allowed employees to work on 10-foot high roofs without fall protection during a job on Aug. 9. The agency also claims the company failed to ensure ladder rails extended above the roof's upper landing surface; OSHA is proposing $72,683 in penalties for the latest infractions.
