Scaffolding Safety

Scaffolding Safety training offers a safer and more comfortable work arrangement than leaning over edges, stretching overhead, and working from ladders. Scaffolding provides employees with secure access to work locations, levels, stable working platforms, and temporary storage for tools and materials to perform immediate tasks. The Scaffolding Safety training program provides knowledge related to legal obligations contained within National and International Standards for the provision and use of scaffolding to ensure safe places of work. Scaffolding Safety helps an organization achieve its obligations to fulfill legal requirements and Operational Control requirements of ISO 45001:2018.
