Course Overview

Every year thousands of accidents and hundreds of fatalities occur to workers with scaffolding jobs in the Oil & Gas and the Construction Industries. Most of the injuries involved in scaffold accidents are caused by either the planking or support giving way, workers falling or to the employee slipping. In addition, following incorrect operating procedures will also lead to accidents. Furthermore, environmental conditions, being struck by falling materials, and plank slippage are apparently some of the most common causes of serious accidents. Unsafe scaffolding procedures can cause accidents, serious injuries and even death. However, scaffolding can give people efficient and safe means to perform work. It also has many applications. When properly erected and maintained, scaffolding provides workers a safe access to work areas, level, and stable working platforms, and temporary storage for tools and materials.
