The steps I have to use every time I go to this business

The steps and walkway are only about 18" wide.

I kinda hope that they collapse on me one day so I will be able to retire a rich man lol

Can't even make one day without a violation

Can't even make one whole day with a jobsite violation. Caught this egregious ladder violation. Stay safe out there and remember your ladder safely!

Is this too close?

My job decided to make us burgers and hotdogs. Tell me what's wrong here.

Bluetooth harness working extra hard today.

Saw this one across from the job site my crew was working on. Yes they both have harnesses on but the guy on the ladder isn’t attached to anything.

Electric company was inspecting electric poles for damage, but this one is apparently fine.

Stopped at a gas station and parked next to this beauty, they had dug it it for inspection and you would think it needs replacement, but they filled in the hole and left so I guess this is fine. Not parking next to this electric pole again, cause it looks like a strong breeze could blow this over.

What would you do if this was your job site

Pretty sure we need shoring and that truck can't be that close to the cliff but what do I know I'm not a safety guy

I have a question

I am already an OSHA40 hazwopper certified trainer at my last job (tenure 8 years; laid off due to- things. ) I now have a job going through changes, they now say the fire exit doors can only be unlocked from within or outside with a keypad. I get it, they need security for the items we process. But if you are not TSA cleared you can’t work here. Everyone had to re provide their ID documents, last 5yrs of address. I am uncomfortable with having a door clearly marked with a sticker “FIRE EXIT” and it’s locked. They started this today and I’m not sure if it’s a manager/hr/firemarshall thing. I like and need this job. I GET an alarm on the door, but locking it? My kids can make millions,no? Half dead cat added for upload. I can’t have my phone at work to take pics of violation Oh so on an OSHA sub I’m not allowed to ask for advice? Great. I’m not asking for advice I’ll just go to the fire marshal

Is this a concern?

Was covering the sides of a compressed air gun while spraying down a line to test something when I felt a sharp pain on my finger. Should I get this checked out?

Especially to fix an exhaust fan at a 3 star restaurant.
