| Title: Fall Protection in the Construction Industry | |
| Abstract: OSHA is considering a revision of its existing standards for fall protection in construction to expand coverage to telecommunication towers and tanks and other construction operations; to eliminate certain paperwork requirements and to make editorial revisions. OSHA is also considering raising a number of issues that may lead to further changes to the fall protection rules as they now apply to roofing work, residential construction operations, climbing reinforcement steel and to vendors delivering materials (for example, roofing materials). The Federal Register notice will raise issues that have arisen since OSHA last revised the fall protection standard for construction workers in August 1994. | |
