Middletown Roofing Pros Reinforces Safety Commitment Amid High Industry Injury Rates

MIDDLETOWN, N.J. - EntSun -- Middletown Roofing Pros announced strengthened safety awareness and prevention efforts in response to national data identifying roofing as one of the most hazardous civilian occupations in the United States. The industry reports a fatal injury rate of approximately 51.8 per 100,000 full-time workers, with more than 110 roofing-related deaths annually and 134 recorded fatalities in 2023.

Falls account for the majority of roofing deaths, with additional risks including electrocution, extreme weather exposure, and injuries involving heavy or hot materials. Safety organizations emphasize the importance of fall protection systems, equipment inspections, hazard training, ladder safety, and supervised team-based work to reduce incidents.

"Roofing presents risks that are significantly higher than many other trades, and responsible contractors must take every preventive step available," said a company spokesperson. "Our focus remains on protective equipment, continuous training, and disciplined job-site planning."
