All your employees who work on elevated surfaces should be trained in
safety procedures and fall-arrest equipment. Safety First: Elevated
Work Surfaces/Fall Protection covers all the basics about work
environment, equipment, and procedures they need to know. The video
covers environmental conditions, including weather, electrical, and
mechanical hazards. Employees receive valuable information about
guardrail specifications, use of roped-off areas during construction, and
safety systems found on tanks and towers. The video provides a
detailed explanation of the proper use of full-body harnesses, proper
use and maintenance of ladders and scaffolding, and safe practices for
working on rooftops, large storage tanks, and water towers.
