Falls remain one of the leading causes of injury in construction. The good news? Every single one is preventable. We know that safety is more than a checklist—it’s a culture, a responsibility, and a daily commitment shared by every member of our team.
During Fall Prevention Awareness Week, we’re taking the time to highlight practices that go beyond the basics and focus on the overlooked details that can make a big difference on the jobsite.
✅ Inspect Anchor Points
It’s easy to trust that an anchor point is safe because it “looks” secure. But a quick inspection can prevent a serious incident. Every harness connection should be double-checked—never assumed.
✅ Stow Loose Tools
Loose tools and equipment can create unexpected tripping hazards and snagging risks. Keeping walkways clear and tools properly stored ensures both mobility and safety for everyone on site.
✅ Watch Weather Shifts
Conditions on the jobsite can change in an instant. Rain, snow, or high winds make surfaces slick and unstable, increasing the risk of slips or falls. Monitoring weather patterns and adjusting site practices keeps workers protected.
Fall prevention isn’t about paperwork or procedures—it’s about people. It’s about ensuring that every member of our team makes it home safely at the end of the day. By staying alert to the small things, we create jobsites that are stronger, safer, and more productive.
