Who Should Take This Class?
Anyone in California who deals with fall hazards such as staircases, walkways, raised platforms, unstable surfaces and heights should take this course. Workers who work on elevated platforms such as roofs, cranes and scaffolds need fall protection training to reduce safety hazards and prevent accidents.
Industries Requiring This Course
Any California industry that involves working at height requires fall protection proficiency. In California, any elevated working surface 30 inches or more above the work area must meet width, clear headroom and padding requirements. The manufacturing, roofing and construction industries all require fall protection courses to protect employees.
What Requirements Does This Course Satisfy?
This fall protection course satisfies California’s Title 8 fall protection regulations. Our course meets the requirements laid out in the fall protection guidelines, the written fall protection plan and Subchapter 7’s openings and safety feature specifications.

This one-hour course will provide you with guided fall protection training. With this training, you will understand fall hazards and fall protection standards set by Cal/OSHA. The course will review fall hazards and teach you how to minimize them for a safer workplace.
Topics Covered
This course covers critical topics such as fall hazard identification, appropriate fall protection systems, anchor points and proper use of personal protective equipment (PPE). It also teaches you about federal fall regulations and California’s additional requirements for reducing fall hazards.

Grading Policy
Students will need at least 75% on the final exam to pass the course. You can take the final up to three times — failure to pass after three attempts means you will need to re-enroll in the class to attempt the exam again.
