(OSHA) OSHA fine in fatal June fall



The death of a construction worker who fell 45 feet while performing repairs on a Philadelphia church roof in June has led to 10 safety violation citations, including three for allegedly willful violations, against James J. McCullagh Roofing Co. in Jenkintown. The U.S. Labor Department's Occupational Safety and Health Administration cited the company with failure to provide adequate fall protections and fined it $71,600, which it can appeal. The company's listed phone number was not working. - Jane M. Von Bergen
