Stand-Down for Fall Safety
Please join us on May 7th for the 2024 National Safety Stand-Down to Prevent Falls in Construction with ABC Arkansas. A Safety Stand-Down is a voluntary event for employers to talk directly to employees about safety. This stand-down is taking a break to focus on "Fall Hazards" and reinforcing the importance of "Fall Prevention". This is an opportunity to have a conversation with employees about the other job hazards they face, protective methods, and the company's safety policies and goals. It can also be an opportunity for employees to talk to management about fall and other job hazards they see. OSHA is partnering with key groups to assist with this effort.
This is an event for your entire company and a Certificate of Participation will be available. All workers and supervisors that work at heights are highly encouraged to attend.
A complimentary lunch will be served during the event! Schedule is below.
Reservations are required.
