SafetyManager's "Supported Scaffolding Safety" Regulatory
Compliance Kit assists facilities of all types in complying
with OSHA's Scaffolding regulation (29 CFR 1926.451),
and helps 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.
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. This Regulatory Compliance Videotape
Program will help employers meet the training requirements
of OSHA's Scaffolding regulation.
The
Posters in the Kit emphasize the importance of scaffolding
safety.
