Construction Safety

Construction sites are hectic locations filled with workers, moving equipment, and many potential hazards. Safety Made Simple is your one-stop headquarters for interactive training courses that instruct employees on how to lower the risk of accidents. Our goal is to help you send your people home safely. Because of the many hazards present at construction sites, workers can easily overlook a potentially dangerous situation. Our goal is to provide targeted training opportunities that reduce the risk and help you create a safer, more productive work environment.

"We offer numerous courses designed to make job sites safer. Examples of programs that apply to the construction industry include:

Fall Protection: Introduction to Fall Arrest and Restraint: Falls are the leading cause of severe injuries and deaths at construction sites. This interactive course covers the importance of utilizing appropriate fall protection strategies when working at heights.
