Supervision in Manual Falling

Support for Supervisors

Supervisors play a key role in the forestry industry, helping to make sure fallers return home safe at the end of the day. This video explains that everyone has a role to play in faller safety, and that when licensees and prime contractors support supervisors it demonstrates that they respect the authority supervisors have in the field. Support for supervisors is good for business, and employers see a return on investment when they give supervisors the resources they need to do the job.
