This book provides multiple solutions to eliminate fall hazards in more than one trade or situation and tools to improve fall-hazard observations and documentation. The author’s recommendations for personal training for the exposed worker to reduce exposure to falls is balanced by his many recommendations for designing out fall hazards and providing engineered anchorages for those who must maintain buildings long after they are built.
