Falls are one of the major causes of death in the construction industry. More than 100,000 fall related injuries occur each year. Many of the injuries result in disabilities. Approximately 200 result in death. To protect our UBC members as well as other workers on the job, the Carpenters Training Committee for Northern California offers in depth training in Fall Protection. The course covers: regulation requirements, fall protection devices and equipment available, what fall protection equipment to use and when, what is a tie off point and how to use it, and hands on practice with equipment.
