CMAA

On a site, some of the most dangerous moments happen when a worker’s body is still on the job, but their mind has already moved somewhere else.

That can happen at the end of a shift, during a break, while finishing one last task, or around lunch. A worker may be gathering tools, walking back to a ladder, stepping around materials, or heading toward a break area. The work may feel temporarily over, but the hazard has not gone anywhere.

Learn more about how construction fall hazards don't pause during lunch in ForConstructionPros.com.

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