Scissor lifts provide a safe work platform when used properly but can present serious hazards if not. OSHA investigated incidents involving scissor lifts and found most injuries and fatalities resulted from lack of fall protection, stabilization, and proper positioning. Employers must ensure scissor lifts have guardrails, are used on level surfaces away from hazards, and positioned away from electrical sources and crushing hazards. Workers must be trained before operating scissor lifts.
This document provides an overview of caught-in hazards, which are one of the four most common hazards in construction. It discusses hazard recognition related to cranes and heavy equipment, tools and equipment, materials handling, and trenches/excavations. It also covers accident prevention methods such as guarding moving equipment, using barricades, proper materials handling, and installing shielding or trench boxes for excavations. The document aims to help construction workers recognize and prevent caught-in hazards on the jobsite.
This document discusses the importance of job briefings for worker safety. It outlines the key elements that should be covered in a job briefing, including identifying hazards, establishing responsibilities, and planning for changes. A job briefing is a tool used before each job to assess safety conditions and outline the tasks, precautions, equipment, and emergency procedures. It should cover hazards, energy controls, and protective equipment as required by OSHA. Additional briefings are needed if work conditions change. Identifying hazards, responsibilities, and adaptability plans are critical to safety. Job briefings promote communication and safety.
We picked the brain of a scaffolding expert, inhouse, and he gave us these basic but effective tips on how to work smart and stay safe on and around scaffolds.
So, whether you’re changing sky-high warehouse light bulbs or replacing windows on a two-story building, here's how to safely use scaffolds to get things done off the ground.

OSHA's 3-step program for fall protection includes:
1. Plan - employers must plan projects to identify fall hazards and select appropriate safety equipment
2. Provide - employers must provide the necessary safety equipment, such as harnesses and lifelines for roof work
3. Train - employers must train workers on how to properly use equipment like ladders, scaffolds, and fall arrest systems to work safely at heights
The document then debunks 5 common myths about fall protection requirements, noting that residential construction, short job durations, and warning lines alone are not sufficient protection in many cases. Statistics on past OSHA citations related to these myths are also provided.

2. In the world of safety and health,
a “competent person” is
designated to ensure the well-
being of employees and workers.
OSHA defines a competent
person as, “one who is capable of
identifying existing and
predictable hazards in the
surroundings or working conditions
which are unsanitary, hazardous,
or dangerous to employees, and
who has the authorization to take
prompt corrective measures to
eliminate them” (29 CFR 1926.450).
3. The Role of the Competent Person
in Scaffolding Operations
• Training employees working on scaffolding to
recognize hazards associated with tasks such as
erecting, dismantling, moving, adjusting, and
inspecting scaffolds.
• Determining the safety of employees working on
scaffolds during unfavorable weather conditions
such as strong winds, storms, or heavy snowfall.
• Ensuring employees working on scaffolding have
access to a personal fall arrest system or wind
screens during bad weather.
• Making sure the scaffolds’ structural integrity is
maintained when components from different
manufacturers are used together.
• Determining whether galvanic action has affected
the capacity of scaffolds when components made
from different metals are used together.

6. What is a Confined
Space?
According to OSHA’s Confined Spaces
Standard, a confined space is defined
as a space that.
Is large enough and so configured
that an employee can bodily enter it,
Has limited or restricted means for
entry and exit, and
Is not designed for continuous
employee occupancy.
7. Responsibilities of a Competent
Person in Confined Spaces
Identify all confined spaces in which one or more employees may be
assigned work before work begins at a worksite.
Determine which of these confined spaces should be designed as a
permit-required confined space through evaluation and testing to
determine the specific safety and health hazards.
Also decide which of the confined spaces workers may enter to
perform work activities.
8. Permit Required Confined Space
