National Safety Stand-Down | May 6 - 10

CSUDH OSHA is hosting a stand-down to support this campaign and raise awareness on fall prevention. During the event we will share ideas and materials that can used by employers and co-workers to raise awareness at construction sites or any workplace setting.

Fatalities caused by falls from elevation continue to be a leading cause of death for construction employees, accounting for 370 of the 991 construction fatalities recorded in 2016 (BLS data). Those deaths were preventable. The National Fall Prevention Stand-Down raises fall hazard awareness across the country in an effort to stop fall fatalities and injuries.
