This course looks at not only the primary fall protection standards; OSHA 1926.500-.503, the ANSI Z359 package and EM385, but also takes into consideration manufacturer guidelines and requirements and best industry practices.
The course not only explains the need and importance of using fall protection correctly, but it also explains the dangers associated with incorrect use or system selection.
The course is presented using PowerPoint presentations, photographs, videos, and hands-on exercises.
Training goals are evaluated and verified through written and verbal knowledge checks and hands-on exercises.
Attendees can look at a photo or situation and determine the hazard(s), determine hazard risk and find workable solutions.
