Toolbox – Fall Protection Links

This past week was OSHA’s 7th Annual Safety Standown to Prevent Falls in Construction. I was pretty active in trying to do my part with the subscribers to my newsletter and on my LinkedIn page by putting-up several links to videos and training resources to help carry the message.
