The U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration is investigating a Bellows Falls, Vt.-based home improvement company in the wake of a fatal fall at a worksite in Hanover, NH.
The Keene Sentinel reported that the Sept. 22 fall occurred at a site on Mulherrin Farm Road and led to the death of Derek Goldsmith, 33, an employee of Jancewicz & Son, a company with customers in New Hampshire, Vermont and Massachusetts.
An OSHA spokesman Ted Fitzgerald told the newspaper that the agency launched an inspection after the incident but would provide no further details.
“Derek was a remarkable young man who has been with our organization for many years,” Jancewicz & Son President Jayson Dunbar, told the newspaper. “(He was) a truly valued employee who was held in high regard by his co-workers and our management team. We are deeply saddened by his loss.”
Dunbar did not respond to emails seeking comment on the circumstances of the fall or the inspection.

Cybersecurity requires a mix of technical depth, real-world experience, and the ability to think critically under pressure. That combination takes time to build, and most companies are competing for the same relatively small pool of proven talent.
Prompt injection is the AI era's version of social engineering, and it's already happening in the wild. If you're deploying AI tools in your organization and haven't thought seriously about this, you should.
Strong cybersecurity can also boost business valuations and inspire buyer confidence. Both sides of the transaction should treat cybersecurity as a key factor in building enterprise value.
Permitting and construction of new homes is up, but it’s still at historic lows and not enough to keep up with demand. The recent housing production is mostly single-family, with a smattering of multi-family developments but relatively few duplexes, triplexes and fourplexes.
