Flintlock Construction Service Fails in Fall Protection, OSHA Finds
New York contractor fined $249,000 for willful and serious violations related to work on a 23-story hotel in Manhattan.
Chief Administrative Law Judge Covette Rooney recently upheld citations and penalties for Flintlock Construction Service, finding the company had knowledge of safety hazards at a 23-story hotel project in Manhattan, New York.
An OSHA inspection found that Flintlock failed to protect employees working on scaffolds from potentially fatal falls of up to 26 feet. In September 2013, OSHA cited Flintlock for willful and serious violations and proposed $249,920 in penalties.
