Industrial jobs can certainly holster a lot of safety hazards, considering the heavy equipment, working at heights, working with dangerous chemicals and electricity, and the list goes on. Because of this, it’s important that companies take extensive safety measures to protect their workers from the hazards that could accompany their industrial jobs. That exactly why OSHA violations are issued, because companies aren’t taking the correct steps to protect their worker’s safety.
This infographic breaks down the common OSHA violations cited in industrial work settings. Ultimately, what it tries to communicate is that personal protective equipment and being familiar with your job hazards is extremely important in keeping yourself safe from injuries.
