See how easily you can address fall protection
Based on the scenarios below, would you say the employer adequately addresses General Industry fall hazards?
Scenario 1: A safety manager surveys work areas to identify any tasks that require employees to work 4 feet or more above the surface. Then, the safety manager ensures guardrails or other acceptable fall protections are in place and in good condition.
Scenario 2: In one area of the building, employees use walkways above dangerous degreasing units. Since the height over the unit is less than four feet, fall protection isn’t necessary.
Scenario 3: A high-traffic area of the workplace is prone to wet floors, but management has determined that workers are too busy to keep it clean or dry. Instead, managers urge employees to use caution.
