Course Overview
The scaffold safety course offered by the American Institute of Safety Professionals focuses on OSHA standard §1926.450 which outlines the safe use, design, and operation of scaffolding at work. This standard covers all scaffolds used in construction, except for crane and derrick suspended scaffolds. All aerial lifts and scaffolding derricks are covered under §1926.453. Training describes scaffolding components which include bearers, braces, cleats, and couplers, and also addresses various types of scaffolds: supported, suspension, bracket, catenary, and boatswain's chair scaffolds. Participants identify key terms such as “competent person” who identifies hazards, takes corrective action and control measures, and “body harness” which is part of the personal fall arrest system. Access, overloading, protection against unstable scaffolds, and burning scaffolds are covered. Protection against electrical hazards, such as exposed power lines; scaffold maintenance; and OSHA standards of structural integrity and safety for workers is emphasized. At the end of the program, participants have the skills to identify hazards, enforce compliance, and cultivate safety culture when working at heights, greatly minimizing the possibility of scaffold accidents in the construction environment.
