Navigating OSHA regulations can be challenging, and even the most diligent businesses can overlook critical safety standards. Here are some commonly misunderstood or overlooked OSHA regulations that could lead to costly fines if not properly addressed:
- Fall Protection in Construction (29 CFR 1926.501): Falls are one of the leading causes of work-related injuries and deaths. Ensuring proper fall protection measures are in place is crucial.

- Respiratory Protection (29 CFR 1910.134): Many facilities overlook the need for proper fit testing and maintenance of respirators, exposing workers to hazardous airborne contaminants.
