ALI offers safety training resources, which include videos, flyers, infographics and a marketing guide to raise awareness of the initiative.
Additionally, the U.S. Department of Labor’s Occupational Safety and Health Administration has a collection of events, training guides and other resources to prevent falls in the workplace.
