Falls from heights don’t have to happen. Learn how to protect your workers and your company in this Fall Protection eBook.
One of the main causes of workplace fatalities is fall from heights. Often this is due to inadequate solutions, especially when workers don’t have access to fall protection equipment or are not using it properly. Part of it is due to a lack of training, as one out of five fatalities occur during the victim’s first two months on the job.
The costs to a company when a fall occurs – hospitalization, worker’s compensation and lost productivity - are just some of the liabilities - and they have the potential to be overwhelming and catastrophic.
These accidents and deaths don’t have to happen, and this eBook will explain the best practices your company can and should follow to prevent injuries and fatalities due to falls from heights. Having a fall protection safety plan will not only save lives, but will also pay off in improving a company’s bottom-line. Follow the guidelines in the eBook as you learn how to comply with OSHA standards as you take action to protect your workers and your company from falls that don’t have to happen.
