LANSING, Mich. (AP) — A worker safety awareness campaign hopes to reduce deaths from falls in Michigan’s roofing industry.
The Michigan Occupational Safety and Health Administration’s “Stop Falls. Save Lives” effort is continuing into its second year.
The agency says the campaign seeks to educate employers and workers about fall hazards. It says falls are preventable with continued training, appropriate equipment and diligent safety awareness in the workplace or job site.
