To ensure workers are provided with safe working and traveling surfaces, OSHA has developed and recently updated its regulation 29 CFR 1910 Subpart D, titled “Walking and Working Surfaces". Those employees covered by the regulation must be trained in the nature of the fall hazards in the work area and how to recognize them, as well as in the procedures to be followed to minimize those hazards.  This program discusses the requirements addressed in the sections of the regulation in detail so viewers can make sure the surfaces on which they work or travel are safe and secure.
