Dropped Objects Prevention • Eliminate the hazard altogether by preventing employees from being in areas where materials can fall from above. • Install toe boards to guard rail systems to reduce the chance an object is accidentally kicked or knocked to a lower level. Tool lanyards can provide a primary way of securing tools and preventing them from dropping and injuring someone. However, there are additional precautions to take on the job to reduce the chance of a dropped object and risk of injury. For Example: • Add netting or canopy systems to prevent dropped objects from reaching a lower level work area. • Regulate/restrict the number of tools used at height. • Use of proper head protection.
