In September 2022, OSHA released preliminary data for the top 10 most-cited standards in fiscal year 2022. The data includes violations cited between Oct. 1, 2021, and Sept. 6, 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 preliminary data was presented at the 2022 NSC Safety Congress and Expo by Patrick Kapust, deputy director of the Directorate of Enforcement Programs at OSHA.

The chart below gives OSHA's preliminary data alongside the final data from FY 2021. See recent OSHA Top 10 results here: 2021 | 2020 | 2019 | 2018
