2. Fall Protection
We need protection because even if we’re
experienced working at heights, we can lose our
balance or grip. We can slip, trip, or misstep. We
can fall at any time. We may think that our
reflexes will protect us, but we’re falling before
we know it.
And we don’t have to fall far to get hurt. We’ve
been falling since Day One. Until we get better at
landing, we’ll need protection from falling.
