OSHA Fall Protection Plan

OSHA 29 CFR 1926 Subpart M requires fall protection for residential work at six feet or more, and a written, site-specific plan whenever conventional systems are infeasible. The plan has to name a competent person and stay available on the job site.

Who uses it

Roofing, framing, siding, gutter and solar crews, and any residential contractor working above six feet.

What the generated document includes

  • Named competent person responsible for the site
  • Maximum working height and the exposures identified
  • Protection systems in use — guardrails, PFAS, safety nets or controlled access zones
  • Job address and date block for the site file

Mistakes that get it kicked back

  • Reusing a generic plan across job sites — the standard requires it to be site-specific
  • Naming a competent person who is not actually on site during exposed work
  • Leaving the plan in the truck instead of at the job site where an inspector can read it
