USMWF knows and understands a picture is worth a thousand words.  We are grateful to the families of our fallen workers that have joined the cause and shared the picture and story of their loved one in our USMWF Face Campaign Tribute page.

The tributes are to honor and remember their loved one and to gain a connection between you,  our viewers and the importance of workplace safety, whether that connection be a similar job, work in the same industry, same age or even someone that reminds you of a loved one.  We want you to share our loved one’s stories to ultimately prevent similar incidents from occurring. 


We are the reality of the importance of workplace safety.  It happened to us…...it can happen to anyone.  We invite you to spread the awareness, the stories, the impact with others as together we can make a difference.

​Frank Duran Urbina, 48

Frank was fatally injured in January 2014 while working at Lower Buckeye Jail contracted by Riddle Painting in Phoenix, Arizona. He was fatally injured when a scissor lift parked on an incline toppled over with two men tied off on the lift.

Federal OSHA investigated the incident and proposed a $7,000.00 for one serious violation. In an informal settlement the penalty was reduced to $5,250.00 for one serious violation.
