SEAA Stands with Ironworkers: Tie-Off to Prevent Falls
|
The first week of May marks Construction Safety Week, an opportunity for contractors to engage crews in meaningful conversations and reinforce a shared commitment to jobsite safety.
We encourage our member companies to host or participate in a Fall Prevention Stand-Down and take advantage of SEAA-developed resources designed specifically for steel erection, reinforcing steel, and decking work. Jobsite-ready materials include hard hat stickers, banners, and educational posters that can be incorporated into toolbox talks, crew meetings, or formal Stand-Down events. In addition to the hard hat stickers and banners, SEAA will also release a new poster focused on the Controlled Decking Zone (CDZ). The poster is intended to reinforce best practices and awareness around CDZ requirements and can be displayed in job trailers, training rooms, or other common areas. This year’s Hard Hat Sticker Contest winner is Jackson Nix, VP of Business Admin for Shelby Erectors. His design reinforces a message of solidarity in the trade, reminding ironworkers that they are not alone on the job. Important deadline: Orders for SEAA Fall Prevention Stand-Down banners and hard hat stickers must be placed by April 14 to ensure delivery ahead of Safety Stand-Down Week. Log in first to place your order.
You must be a member to order these materials. |
The Steel Erectors Association of America Hard Hat Sticker Design Contest is open to individuals working in the steel construction industry, the winning design will be reproduced into stickers available for members to use as part of their Fall Prevention Stand Down efforts in May.
