This is just another case of a company trying to take shortcuts at the workers' expense. There are plenty of ways you can try to save money as a business owner and this isn't one of them.

You hear almost every day now about companies being fined for safety violations. And they are some pretty hefty fines like this one.

You‚ve got to keep an eye on your own safety sometimes. Otherwise, you very well may fall off the roof. If that happens, then you‚ve broken my number one roofing rule.
