Construction Toolbox Talks: Near Misses and Fall Protection
by E S, from the Community
IX toolbox talks focus on preventing incidents through near miss reporting and proper fall protection on construction sites. This resource explains when fall protection is required, outlines the differences between fall restraint and fall arrest, and lists the core components of a personal fall arrest system. It provides practical dos and donts for selecting anchor points, tying off, minimizing free fall distance, and inspecting equipment. Workers and supervisors can use these talks to prompt discussion, reinforce OSHA requirements, and encourage speaking up about hazards to keep crews safe.
