To protect concrete workers walking on cast-in-place concrete wall edges after pouring, several fall protection methods can be employed [1]. These include guardrail systems, safety net systems, or personal fall arrest systems 3, 4, 6.

• Guardrail Systems: Install a barrier to prevent workers from falling to lower levels 3, 4.
• Safety Net Systems: Use nets to catch workers if they fall 3, 4.
• Personal Fall Arrest Systems: Provide body harnesses and lanyards connected to secure anchor points 3, 4.

When choosing a fall protection method, consider feasibility and potential hazards associated with each system [1]. If conventional methods are infeasible or create a greater hazard, a written fall protection plan is required 1, 16. This plan should detail fall hazards, protection systems, procedures for system assembly, maintenance, inspection, and use, as well as rescue procedures 13, 16.

Additionally, workers should be trained to recognize fall hazards and the procedures to minimize them 11, 20.
