Fall Protection: Changing Regulations & Keeping Workers Safe

AIR DATE: 

April 03, 2025

TIME: 

9:00 AM Pacific Time

Fall protection standards are changing. Cal/OSHA’s new 6-foot trigger height goes into effect July 1, 2025. 

Falls from heights are one of the most common accidents in the workplace and are the leading cause of construction worker fatalities. As a result, fall protection in construction continues to be the top-cited OSHA standard each year.

In this 90-minute virtual webinar, experts from Cal/OSHA and State Fund will walk you through everything you need to know about fall hazards, the new standard, and how best to protect your workers.

We will cover

  • The new trigger heights for different trades
  • Identifying common fall hazards and fall prevention systems
  • How to properly address fall risks at your workplace
  • Planning and training for those risks and providing the appropriate equipment
  • The annual National Safety Stand-Down which educates employees in fall and other job hazards and how you can deliver your own event
  • Ways to effectively implement fall protection at your workplace
  • And much more…
