STATION ADVISORY
OSHA Eyeing Tower Worker Safety Standards
The Occupational Safety and Health Administration is considering whether it can, and should, take regulatory steps aimed at preventing injuries or deaths during tower work. In a formal Request for Information, OSHA has requested input that will help it figure out “what steps, if any, it can take to prevent injuries and fatalities during tower work.”
With 17 preventable deaths in the last 14 months, regulators send a message to everybody involved with tower work.
