The disturbing news from Pennsauken, NJ where the worker fell into the chocolate vat and died shows the need for fall protection. I have seen many incidents where employers use the passive approach and then nothing is followed thru, in otherwords lets do nothing. It is sad this continues to be an issue in the work place. When will the people who operate these worksites finally understand fall protection should be proactive and not reactive.

We have been fabricating portable fall protection that protects workers in these environments, and all too oftend hear words such as we never had an incident thus justifying not addressing these issues. At which point are these individuals to be held accountable. I have over 30 years experience in the construction and industrial sectors as well as Safety.
To me it is utter nonsense when this type of accident occurs. Use the equipment and your employees go home at the end of the day, I'm syre their families would apprieciate that.

I am new here and would like to invite everyone to look at my page and view the CBS video and the Fall Distance comparison. This contains new information on fall protection. There is more to come. I'm excited about the opportunity to get this information into the hands of the people who can use it to improve their fall protection programs.

Looking for High Angle Rescue items and safety tips and found this website and fits in perfectly with my attraction to safety in the workplace.
