Suspended Scaffolding Safety in Construction Environments

Product Line: Marcom's Regulatory Compliance Series

Whenever a worker leaves the ground, the risk of an accident occurring increases dramatically. With more than 10,000 scaffold related injuries reported each year, OSHA has mandated that workers be trained on how to safely erect and use these work platforms. These products will help employers meet the training requirements of OSHAs Scaffolding regulation.

Safety Video Source's training products on "Suspended Scaffolding Safety in Construction Environments" help employees understand the dangers of working with scaffolds, and how these risks can be minimized by knowing the correct ways to erect, maintain and use scaffolding equipment. Topics covered in these products include:

• Responsibilities of a "scaffold expert".
• Platforms and planking.
• The danger of power lines.
• Platform hazards.
• Personal fall arrest systems.
• Guarding against falling objects.
• and more!
  
  

  The DVD versions of the programs are divided into 2-3 minute "chapters", so the programs can be shown in their entirety in a single session, or individual chapters can be used as the basis for a number of 10-15 minute "Tailgate Meetings" or "Toolbox Talks."
