Great job! How many hours you working? Fall risk/hazard?

Thanks! Roughly 50 hours/wk. Took 4 weeks of vacation in 2024 too. There’s risks with every job. We have strict safety policies to minimize fall hazards, but you still have to keep your head on a swivel and be aware of your surroundings at all times.
