What are the ways an employer can protect workers from falls?

Employers can protect workers from falls by implementing comprehensive safety training programs that educate employees about fall hazards and safe practices. They should also provide appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE), such as harnesses and helmets, and ensure that all work areas are well-maintained and free of hazards. Installing guardrails, safety nets, and proper scaffolding can further minimize fall risks. Regular inspections and maintenance of equipment and workspaces also play a crucial role in fall prevention.
