January 27, 2:00 – 3:30 p.m. ET -- An Update from the National Campaign to Prevent Falls in Construction: The Importance of a Year-Round Fall Prevention Program
2022 marks the 11th year of the NIOSH-CPWR-OSHA Fall Prevention Campaign, which has successfully reached millions of construction contractors and workers nationwide through its annual Safety Stand-Down event. Despite this, fatal falls remain the number one work-related cause of death for construction workers. These fatalities are completely preventable with a good fall prevention and rescue plan and the right access equipment, training, and fall protection. During this webinar, including Q&A, representatives from the three primary Campaign partners -- Scott Earnest, NIOSH’s associate director for Construction; Scott Ketcham, director of OSHA’s Directorate of Construction; and Chris Trahan Cain, CPWR’s executive director -- will review some of the latest findings from the 2021 Stand-Down evaluation and a survey aiming to identify common underlying causes of falls and provide updates on the latest free resources and plans for the 2022 Stand-Down.
