Fall Protection Awareness
Falling at work is a serious matter. Consider the following true story. An employee was doing some roofing work. To clean his work area, he was standing near an eave and tossing old materials into a receptacle on the ground below. He was not wearing the proper personal protective equipment, and he was not using fall protection. He suddenly lost his balance and dropped 13 feet to the ground below. He died instantly. Consider the difference it could have made if the employee had been wearing gear designed to prevent or suspend his fall. Your employer never wants you to end up like this worker. That's why you're taking this course. Our goal is to give you valuable information about fall hazards and how to protect yourself around them.
