Falling Objects Protection

How do I protect my workers from falling objects?

When working on a scaffold platform where workers are below, be sure that:

• There are fully planked platforms
• Toeboards are installed
• If material is piled higher than the toeboards, use screening
• Extend screening from the top of the guardrail to the top of the toeboard or platform
