To inform the content and strategies included in the program, CPWR’s Research to Practice (r2p) program conducted a survey to 1) further explore causes of struck-by injuries, barriers to prevention, and ways to raise awareness and ensure use of safe practices; 2) learn about measures being taken to protect workers and barriers to implementing controls for common struck-by hazards; and 3) gain insights into knowledge of struck-by hazards, the role of planning in prevention, and the motivators, resources, and support needed to prevent incidents. In this webinar, members of the r2p team will review findings from the survey and share information about the pilot program and how to participate in testing it out.": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=flZe2RFpCA4
