The nature of a construction site involves constant movement, machinery, and workers attending to different tasks. While these factors alone account for construction injuries each year, OSHA investigations reveal persistent workplace violations of safety standards. The ten most frequently cited safety violations in 2011 involved the following:

  • Scaffolding construction and requirements
  • Protection from falls
  • Hazard communication
  • Protection from respiratory hazards
  • Control of hazardous energy while servicing or maintaining machines
  • Electrical equipment and wiring
  • Industrial trucks
  • Use and construction of ladders
  • Electrical system design
  • Guarding on machines
