TOP 10 OSHA VIOLATIONS: 2022

9/21/22
Grainger Editorial Staff




OSHA has released data for the top 10 most-cited standards in fiscal year 2022.
The data includes violations cited between Oct. 1, 2021, and Sept. 30, 2022.

For the 12th year running, Fall Protection – General Requirements was the most
frequently cited standard with more than double the citations of the second
most-cited standard. Despite this remarkable consistency, or perhaps because of
it, safety practices around working at elevated heights have continued to
evolve. 

The 10 most-cited standards in 2022 remained the same as in 2021, though the
order shifted somewhat. Hazard Communication jumped from fifth to second, with a
25% increase in cited violations. The biggest drop in cited violations occurred
in Scaffolding, with a 19% decrease. Respiratory Protection, which surged early
in the pandemic, fell from second to third in 2022, but was still more prominent
than it had been before COVID-19.

The chart below gives financiall year 2022 data alongside the data from FY 2021.
