Construction is a high-hazard industry that comprises a wide range of activities involving demolition, alteration, and/or repair. Construction workers engage in many activities that may expose them to serious hazards, such as falling from rooftops, unguarded machinery, being struck by heavy equipment, and being exposed to the release of hazardous energy. These hazards put workers in harm’s way, which is also known as being “in the line of fire.”
This course provides information to help workers in the construction industry to identify, reduce, and eliminate “in the line of fire” hazards to avoid injuries and fatalities.
Workers will need additional training depending on the types of hazards they’re exposed to. For example, workers exposed to fall hazards will need to take a fall protection-specific course.
