Your Fall Protection Standards Cheat Sheet

Organizations can use the standards in the ANSI/ASSP Z359 Fall Protection Code to address a wide range of fall protection and fall restraint requirements in the workplace. While the guidance in the Code represents best practices in the industry, it’s more than 1,000 pages of content to work through to determine the most critical elements to achieve maximum risk reduction.

In this session, the chair of the Z359 Committee shares the most impactful aspects of the standards—to allow attendees to focus efforts on the elements that have the highest potential to reduce fall risk. Coming on the heels of the recent Fall Protection Stand Down, this session helps organizations understand the most impactful aspects of the Code that can improve a fall protection program year-round.
