Regular inspections of existing fall hazard controls are essential to ensure that they are performing as intended and that employees have been trained in their use.&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;The most preferred approach to fall protection is utilizing passive fall protection and restraint systems that restrict worker movement, which reduce the likelihood of falling. These systems should be implemented by a qualified person who has been trained in fall safety and rescue techniques. They should be used in conjunction with other fall safety systems, such as fall arrest and lifeline systems, to provide complete fall protection.&lt;/div&gt;</summary>
