To celebrate the National Safety Stand-down, May 7-11, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) is providing several resources on preventing workplace hazards, including a webinar on fall prevention in the construction industry. 

The one-hour webinar, developed by OSHA Region 6 and OSHA Education Centers in Louisiana, Oklahoma and Texas, will be available from May 7 to May 11 and will focus on compliance with OSHA’s new construction fall standards and its training requirements. 

Additionally, the OSHA website provides fall prevention resources for employers and employees, which include stand-down partner materials, outreach training materials, fall safety videos and information on ladders and scaffolds.
