National Safety Stand-Down Resources

This week marks the annual National Safety Stand Down to Prevent Falls In Construction. Led by OSHA, the National Stand Down is a week-long event where companies are encouraged to dedicate specific time to discuss Fall Hazards and more importantly, Fall Prevention. With nearly one third of all construction related deaths being caused by falls, now is an excellent time to address such an important issue.

There are a number of excellent resources for Safety Stand Down content including podcasts, toolbox talks, and videos. Below are a few links to help your company prevent falls.
