​SEAA Stands with Ironworkers: Tie-Off to Prevent Falls

SEAA supports the National Safety Stand-Down to Prevent Falls in Construction. The week-long focus on fall prevention is held annually in the spring.

SEAA distributes to members tips for holding effective safety stand down events and recommendations on topics relevant to fall prevention in steel erection.
