Our Falling Objects (CAN) Hazards course complies with regulations and our online delivery meets the requirements for classroom-based instruction. Each module includes sections on safety protocols, preventive measures, potential hazards, and more. In this training, we will focus on safe operations in work environments at risk of falling objects, such as construction sites with scaffolding, cranes, heavy machinery, and ladders. Participants will gain an understanding of the principles of gravity as they apply to falling objects and loads. The course will explain how to mitigate falling object hazards using a hierarchy of controls. Participants will learn how to utilize tool tethering and site controls to prevent equipment from falling from heights. The course will also cover the appropriate personal protective gear to wear in environments with falling object risks. By studying authentic, investigated workplace accidents, participants will be able to identify these hazards and plan accordingly.
