OSHA

Murray Roofing Company Inc. understands that falls are the leading cause of death in the construction industry. Roofers encounter many hazards on the job, including hazards associated with working at heights and from ladders, power tools, electricity, noise, hazardous substances, and extreme temperatures. That’s why we try to meet or exceed all OSHA standards.
