Managing the Complexities of a Fall Protection Program: ANSI Z359.14, Hazard Assessment, PPE Selection, and Custom Solutions
Fall Protection has remained #1 on OSHA’s Most-Frequently Cited Standards each year since 2011,1 and continues to be a leading cause of death in the Construction industry.2 From harnesses and self-retracting devices (SRDs) to custom engineered systems, fall protection solutions can vary from straight-forward to complex. Managing a comprehensive safety program requires an understanding of the broad range of work-at-heights hazards along with fall protection solutions and equipment available to help keep workers safe at height across industries and applications.
Join us on August 16th for an overview of key things you should know about fall protection standards, PPE, and systems, including:
