The Bureau of Labor Statistics reported that almost three-fourths (72%) of employees injured in scaffold accidents stated their injuries occurred due to planking giving away, slip and fall accidents, or falling objects.

Take Safety to New Heights

Scaffolding is a crucial component of construction projects. It provides the necessary support and access for workers to perform their tasks at great heights. However, despite its importance, improper scaffolding practices lead to numerous accidents and fatalities each year. Ensuring safe and effective scaffolding is not just a matter of regulatory compliance—it’s a matter of life and death.

Why Scaffolding Safety Training?

Scaffolding violations are routinely in the top ten of OSHA’s frequently cited standards and for good reason. Falls from scaffolding due to improper access, poor plank set up and condition and lack of fall prevention are all too common. This module emphasizes hazard identification, avoidance, and control as it relates to the 3 most common types of scaffolding and will provide an overview of set up, inspection, access and use of supported scaffolding systems and some common dangers.
