Reach OSHA_FOCUS_FOUR readiness without rebuilding your policy programme
The OSHA Focus Four are the four leading causes of construction fatalities in the US: Falls, Electrocutions, Struck-By + Caught-In/Between. Collectively they account for ~60% of US construction deaths. The Focus Four anchors OSHA's 10-Hour + 30-Hour Construction Outreach Training. Not a regulatory standard per se but a structured framework derived from OSHA 29 CFR 1926 subparts M, K + V, Q + various Caught-In provisions. Quick Policy maps OSHA_FOCUS_FOUR into the policy families, controls, and evidence your team needs — and keeps it current between audits.
