Fall Protection

(Energy Safety Canada)

Overview

This comprehensive Fall Protection training was designed to align with the highest standards for training in most Canadian jurisdictions using the Canadian Standards Association (CSA) Z259. This course will equip participants with the essential knowledge and skills necessary to work safely at heights and prevent fall related incidents.

This training will educate the worker in the planning, use, care and implementation of common fall protection systems. It includes both theory and practical application exercises.

Participants will engage in hands on training activities, including inspecting, fitting, adjusting and connecting fall protection systems and components.

While this basic course can be used as part of a workers competency assessment, the employer must designate a worker as a “competent person” based on specific tasks assigned.
