TUMWATER — A roofing company based in Snohomish is faced with hundreds of thousands of dollars in fines, according to a statement from the Washington State Department of Labor and Industries.

The department announced on Tuesday that it has fined Allways Roofing $442,654 for new safety violations. L&I issued 11 citations for repeatedly ignoring fall protection requirements, inappropriate eye protection and lack of training for workers, according to the statement.

Allways Roofing has been cited for more than 100 safety violations in the last 10 years, many for repeated and willful failure to wear fall protection, according to the statement. The most recent citation brings the total fines against the company to more than $3 million since 2019.

“This company knows exactly what the rules are,” Craig Blackwood, assistant director for L&I’s Division of Occupational Safety and Health, wrote in the statement. “The foreman on site has been involved in at least four other citations in the past. They’re blatantly choosing to ignore the rules, putting workers at serious risk of injury or death.”
