Tools@height certifications

According to OSHA, each year sees thousands of recorded incidents of people being struck by falling objects — and some of the most commonly dropped objects are tools. Students learn to identify hazards and prevent accidents when performing work “at height.” They gain situational awareness skills and workplace best practices to help prevent equipment damage and injury to others.

The Tools@Height™ drop prevention certification gives students the foundational skills they need to remain safe and productive in the workplace, learning best practices to prevent injuries and foreign object damage (FOD).
