Fall Protection Systems: The Safety Infrastructure That Prevents Construction's Most Common Fatal Incident
Falls are the leading cause of construction fatalities. OSHA 29 CFR 1926 Subpart M mandates fall protection above 6 feet in most construction.

Understanding fall protection is essential for every construction supervisor and worker.
