Scout's Toolbox Talks

🧱 Fall Protection and Working at Heights

Fall Rescue Plans

Stopping a fall is only half the job — rescuing the worker quickly is the rest.

A fall arrest system is only effective if there’s a plan to rescue the worker immediately. Suspension trauma can begin in minutes. These toolbox talks cover the components of a fall rescue plan, self-rescue vs. assisted rescue, equipment needs, communication protocols, and OSHA rescue plan requirements. Use them to prepare crews to act fast and save lives when a fall occurs.

Lead safety meetings with toolbox talks focused on fall rescue procedures, suspension trauma risks, and OSHA-compliant planning for working at heights.
