When an OSHA compliance officer arrives onsite: ➢ Notify the person responsible for the site such as the supervisor, manager, project superintendent or owner. ➢ Request identification, write down the Compliance Officer's name and ID number and ask which area office they represent. ➢ A manager should escort the Compliance Officer at all times. ➢ A company representative should take notes and photos of all the inspection activities. #osha #sitevisit #constructionsafety #tololboxtalks #compliance #projectmanagement #constructionmanagement #safetyfirst

Safety is not a choice—it’s a must. At the end of this #FallProtectionWeek, we must understand the severity of the most common OSHA violation. Our tone is serious because this is one of the biggest causes of serious injury and death. It simply cannot be overlooked. Each of us must: - Plan - Provide equipment - Train - And monitor. And just when you think you’ve covered the topic enough, learn more about potential risks. Join us in our mission to do whatever it takes to protect the world’s most precious resource: human life. 📷 : Daniel James #STCSafety #FallProtection #FallProtectionTraining #Safety #SafetyEssentials #SafetyTips #ConstructionSafety #RoofingSafety #RiskManagement #SaveLives

Workplace violence training is critical for jobsite safety. MCAA safety professional Raffi Elchemmas encourages all contractors to take time to talk about it this safety week. Remember, in the event of workplace violence: • Run if you can • Hide if you must • And fight as a last resort to save your life Throughout the week, MCAA and our Safety Alliance partners at the National Electrical Contractors Association (NECA), SMACNA, and The Association of Union Constructors have highlighted best practices, shared knowledge, and reaffirmed our commitment to keeping everyone safe. #StandDown4Safety

🚧 #SafetyTip: Understanding Confined Spaces 🚧 Did you know that many workplaces harbor confined spaces, presenting unique safety challenges? These spaces hinder entry, work, or exit due to their configurations, posing increased risks like entrapment and hazardous atmospheres. It's crucial to recognize confined spaces, as defined by OSHA: 1️⃣ Large enough for entry and work 2️⃣ Limited entry and exit means 3️⃣ Not designed for continuous occupancy Remember, all confined spaces are initially considered permit-required until hazards are removed, potentially reclassifying them. Stay informed and prioritize safety to ensure a hazard-free work environment! https://hubs.ly/Q02x6mN_0 #WorkplaceSafety #SafetyFirst #OSHACompliant

🔨 Safety First! 🔨 At Olsen, we prioritize safety above all else. Following OSHA guidelines ensures that our job sites are secure and our team members go home safe every day. Today’s Tip: Fall Protection 🛠️ Falls are one of the leading causes of serious work-related injuries and deaths. To prevent falls, OSHA recommends: 1. Guardrails: Ensure all open sides and edges are protected by guardrails. 2. Personal Fall Arrest Systems (PFAS): Use PFAS where guardrails are not feasible. Inspect harnesses, lanyards, and anchor points before each use. 3. Ladders: Always use ladders safely. Secure them properly and maintain three points of contact. Remember: Safety equipment is your last line of defense. Stay alert, follow protocols, and report any hazards immediately. Stay safe, team! #SafetyFirst #OSHA #ConstructionSafety #Olsen

Very recently I wrote a piece on this exact topic. While Bryan Haywood correctly highlights that the model was developed in the 1920 and from this perspective, it might look progressive, we should not forget that this period (and even later) was dominated by "scientific management" - which was not much science nor management. We should also look at the model as explicative at best, but this is not a predictive model and as such useless in preventing injuries. Here is my long take on the value of the safety pyramid: https://lnkd.in/gviG4ttw
