When it comes to OSHA violations, fall protection is a repeat offender and not just in one way. Last year, fall protection wasn't only the most-cited safety violation overall. Failing to meet fall protection training requirements landed as its own major violation too, with nearly 1,900 citations.

The construction industry talks a lot about training, and it should. Workers need to understand the hazards around them and the practices that keep them safe.

But we also need to be honest about human attention. Read what Brent Smith, CEO and Founder of Leading Edge Safety has to say in a recent article published in Construction Pros.

Midday transitions can leave workers vulnerable to falls. Contractors can reduce exposure with passive fall protection and brief pre- and post-break safety resets.

Falls remain one of the most preventable causes of serious injury on the job, yet they continue to top OSHA's list year after year. The good news? With the right equipment and proper training, your team doesn't have to be a statistic.

One question matters most before every shift:
Will everyone make it home tonight?
