OSHA has recently launched a web page to help protect workers from hazards they may face during winter storm response and recovery operations. The page helps employers and workers involved in cleanup and recovery operations recognize storm-related hazards and the necessary steps that employers must take to keep workers safe in these conditions. It also includes guidance for workers clearing heavy snow in front of buildings and from rooftops, those encountering downed power lines or traveling on icy roads, and utility workers restoring power after winter storms.
