This year’s National Safety Stand-Down to Prevent Falls in Construction will take place May 6-10. The Stand-Down is a week-long event that invites employers to pause work on their job sites and have a conversation with workers about fall hazards, protective methods, and their company’s safety policies, goals and expectations. This should also be an opportunity for workers to talk to management about fall hazards they see.
