Fall Protection
This document discusses fall protection, including defining fall protection as protecting workers from injury after losing balance at heights. It outlines three types of fall protection: fall prevention, fall restraint, and fall arrest. Fall protection is required for various elevated work platforms and equipment. Common fall protection equipment includes anchors, harnesses, lanyards, and lifelines. Fall protection plans outline policies and procedures for assembling, using, inspecting and dismantling fall protection gear. OSHA establishes fall protection standards to prevent risks from elevated heights. The document also advertises an online fall protection training course.
