Walking and Working Surfaces in Construction Environments

This safety video program on Walking and Working Surfaces in Construction Environments discusses the hazards that are associated with different walking surfaces that employees can encounter on the job, and provides practical information that they need to protect themselves from harm.

Whether we’re standing, walking or climbing, we depend on the surfaces we walk upon to provide the support we need to position ourselves properly, use our muscles efficiently, keep our balance… and do our work safely. Yet slips, trips and falls continue to make up 20% of disabling occupational injuries, and thousands of fatalities every year. Fortunately, most of these accidents can be prevented.

Areas covered in the safety video program include:

• construction’s unique walking and working surface environments,
• walking and working on floors and pathways,
• stairs and fixed ladders,
• portable ladders,
• scaffolding, and more.

The safety video program comes with a quiz, a scheduling and attendance form, a training certificate, and an employee training log.

Associated Regulations:

• 1910 Subpart D – Walking-Working Surfaces
