Why take a fall protection training quiz

Falls are the leading cause of death in the workplace. Each year, falls account for nearly 1 million injuries and result in nearly 300 fatalities. That’s why it’s so important that your employees receive fall protection training. Falls can occur from any height, so it’s important that workers are aware of the dangers of working at height and know how to safely work in an area where a fall could occur. In order to protect themselves and others in the workplace, workers need to be familiar with the types of fall protection systems that are available, as well as the requirements for using them. They also need to know how to properly inspect fall protection equipment before use and how to properly adjust and wear fall protection gear. That’s why we’ve put together this quiz on fall protection training. It will help to ensure that your workers are up to date on the latest fall protection regulations and are able to safely work in areas where there is a risk of a fall.

Falls are the leading cause of death in the construction industry. A worker who falls from a height of just four feet is twice as likely to die as a worker who falls from a height of 10 feet. Falls also cause more than $13 billion in lost workdays and result in more than 200,000 serious injuries annually. Falls can be prevented by providing the right training to employees. This quiz will help you identify what parts of your organization's fall protection plan your team members can't recall and close these knowledge gaps so your team can remain safe while working at height. This knowledge is critical for protecting the health and safety of your team, as it teaches them how to identify and avoid potential hazards, complete a fall risk assessment, and use the right personal protective equipment (PPE). With this fall protection training reinforcement in place, the overall safety of your business and the employees working at height can be much greater. Not only can reinforcing this essential training save lives, it also helps ensure that your organization is compliant with government regulations. With regular fall protection quizzes, your team will be more confident with any fall-related incident or emergency. Plus, you’ll also get access to your team’s results ​​so you can understand individual workers’ knowledge gaps, as well as overall performance once the quiz is complete. For teams that require more regular refresher training, you’ll also have the option to deliver the fall protection quiz to your teams in bite-sized chunks, at regular intervals. This allows your team to reinforce their knowledge at their own pace, making them more likely to recall what they learned sooner than if they were to have completed a one-off training program. And the best part is that your teams can access this fall protection quiz on their preferred device whenever they have 5 minutes to spare – whether that’s on their commute, in between tasks, or before they finish up for the day.
