remodelers, home improvement contractors, builders, roofers, painters, siding
and gutter contractors and trades protect their workers when they are working
at heights of 6 feet or more above a lower level. Falls are the leading cause
of deaths in the construction industry and OSHA says these deaths are preventable.
