National Work Zone Awareness Week, April 8-12
OSHA is collaborating with the U.S. Federal Highway Administration, state of Georgia, and local governments and employers to support safety stand-down events during National Work Zone Awareness Week, April 8-12. The event focuses on safety hazards workers face during road improvement and repair projects. The kickoff event will be held at the Frederick Douglass Memorial Bridge in Washington, D.C., on April 9 at 11 a.m. Georgia is encouraging employers to stop work voluntarily from 7-8 a.m., one day during the week, to discuss struck-by hazards and best safety practices.
