Fall Prevention Training Class
How much do you think only 1 serious OSHA Fall Protection violation could cost you?
$500? $3,000? $16,550?
If you guessed $16,550, you’re absolutely right! And that’s for EACH serious violation.
To help you avoid costly fines and protect workers, the National Association of Home Builders, in partnership with the Job-Site Safety Institute, National Housing Endowment and HBA of Greater Knoxville, is conducting a 4-hour Fall Prevention in Residential Construction Training seminar for builders, trade contractors, supervisors and workers. This training program focuses on identifying fall hazards in residential construction, as well as, providing attendees an understanding of the OSHA fall protection regulations and safe work practices to prevent fall-related injuries and deaths.
NAHB, the Job-Site Safety Institute and National Housing Endowment are proud to offer Fall Prevention Training course designed specifically for residential construction workers. This course provides essential knowledge on identifying and mitigating fall hazards on the job site, proper use of fall protection equipment, and safety protocols to reduce risk and prevent accidents. *Attendees are strongly encouraged to bring their personal safety harnesses for hands-on interactive training.
This course will be comprised of 6 modules, Introduction to Fall Protection, Ladders, Scaffolding, Conventional Fall Protection, Additional Fall Protection Systems, Rescue, and will cover the correct procedures, equipment usage, as well as give examples of incorrect applications of fall protection. By completing this course, participants will be able to:
- Recognize common fall hazards in residential construction.
- Identify when fall protection is required.
- Determine which protection system to use for a given fall hazard.
- Understand the key requirements and basic safety practices for each protection system.
- Understand the safety requirements and practices for ladders and scaffolding.
- This course will count as credit toward continuing education requirements for NAHB designations (CAPS, CGA, CGB, CGP, CGR, CMP, CSP, etc.), and for state licensing requirements for HBA members.
