SCAFFOLDING BEST PRACTICE #22: Falling Object Protection System Selection
Contrary to popular (and often regulatory) belief, there are more falling object protection solutions than just toeboards. Depending on the particular hazard – tool lanyards, nets, canopies, etc. may all be more effective. Just as important, don’t overlook risk reduction/management procedures such as: limiting tools/materials at height, and controlling access traffic below the elevated work area to further “engineer out the hazard” of falling objects. #scaffolding #safety
