If someone has ever told you, “You need to pay for your own fall protection training before we hire you,” let me stop you right there. Because this is one of the biggest misunderstandings I see in construction, maintenance, warehousing, roofing, telecom work—pretty much anywhere people climb, work at heights, or use harnesses. Let’s get

Fall protection isn’t something you learn “when you get a chance.” It’s one of those safety topics that has to happen at the right time—because the risks are real, the rules are strict, and OSHA doesn’t leave much room for guessing. Let’s break this down in a simple, conversational way so you know exactly when

If you’ve ever tried to make sense of OSHA’s regulations, especially the ones about fall protection, you probably know how overwhelming they can feel. The rules are written like legal documents, scattered across different sections, and full of references that point you to even more sections. And when someone asks: “What exactly does 29 CFR

And if you’re trying to plan your work schedule, crew rotation, or your own certification, that difference is a big deal. Here’s

If there’s one thing I’ve learned from being around safety programs for a long time, it’s this: training is only half the battle—documentation is what protects you when things go wrong. You can train workers thoroughly, walk them through equipment, coach them on tie-off points, and even supervise their practice. But if an OSHA inspector

These are the real fall protection training questions workers ask, the same ones I’ve heard again and again on training days, safety meetings, and actual jobsites. And every answer is explained in a clear, practical way—no jargon, no complicated technical talk. Let’s break down the questions that matter most when it comes to staying safe

If you work in construction, roofing, maintenance, warehousing, or anything that involves climbing even a few feet off the ground in Alabama, you’ve probably heard someone say, “You need fall protection training for that.” And honestly, they’re right. Falls are still one of the leading causes of injuries on Alabama job sites. Whether you’re in
