I'm a Regional Safety Manager on the largest college bond project in the country, BUILD LACCD (Los Angeles community college district).We have 9 campuses throughout Los Angeles and I have responsibility for three campuses and all construction projects on those campuses.
In 2014 I joined the program and thought the Stand Down for Fall Prevention would be a good way to show my involvement with our contractors by working with their safety teams to set up training and stand downs on our larger projects. In 2014 only our major GC's were willing to take time out of the day or put any effort into joining the stand down.
