Where can OSHA's Fall Protection standards be found?

OSHA's Fall Protection standards specifically for the construction industry are found in 29 CFR 1926, Subpart M. This part of the Code of Federal Regulations outlines the requirements for fall protection in construction work environments. It addresses various scenarios where employees may be at risk of falling from elevated surfaces and prescribes the necessary safety measures and equipment to mitigate those risks.

Understanding that Subpart M is dedicated to fall protection is essential for professionals in the roofing and construction industries, as it provides guidelines on how to properly assess and manage fall hazards, ensuring the safety of workers at heights. While other parts of the CFR relate to occupational safety and health, they do not specifically address the fall protection measures required in a construction context like Subpart M does.
