A DROPPED TOOL FROM HEIGHT ISN'T A NEAR MISS TO PLAN AROUND AFTER THE FACT
What you get
- A fillable PDF - type directly into every section and the comments area
- Specific Work Locations - identify every area where tasks happen at varying heights
- Materials - describe the tools and equipment that could fall from height during the work
- Falling Objects Hazards - existing and potential hazards, including overhead hazards, tied to the actual work site
- Controls to be Used - the specific systems in place, such as netting, control zones, or tool lanyards
- Procedures - how those controls are assembled, inspected, used, maintained, and dismantled
- A Comments section and sign-off by up to four people who developed the plan, plus management review
- Your company logo added to the form, at no extra charge
How to fill it out and keep it. Open it in Adobe Acrobat Reader (free) or a desktop browser like Chrome or Edge, then use that program's own Save or Download button, not just closing the tab, so your entries are kept in the saved copy. On a phone, most PDF apps will let you view the form but not type into it - fill it out on a computer, or print it and use a pen.

Why crews use it
- Five separate sections - locations, materials, hazards, controls, procedures - force a genuine plan instead of a single vague 'be careful of falling objects' note
- Controls and procedures are documented separately, so the plan covers not just WHAT is in place (netting, tool lanyards) but HOW it's assembled, inspected, and maintained
- Multiple names and positions can sign as having developed the plan, spreading accountability across the people who actually know the site
- Management review sign-off gives the plan a second check before work at height begins
Built for
- Supervisors and safety coordinators planning work at height where tools or materials could fall
- Companies needing documented evidence of a dropped-objects prevention plan for COR/SECOR audits or client prequalification
- Sites with overhead work zones where a falling tool or material is a real risk to workers below
Why it matters
A dropped object from height doesn't give the person below it a warning, and 'we were careful' isn't a plan. This form makes the site identify exactly where the risk exists, what could actually fall, what stops it, and how those controls are kept working - the difference between a real prevention plan and a policy statement nobody can point to on site.

Common questions
Before you buy
What people ask us about the Dropped Objects Prevention Plan.
What is the Dropped Objects Prevention Plan used for?
A Dropped Objects Prevention Plan built around five specific questions - where is work happening at height, what could fall, what hazards exist, what controls are used, and what procedures keep it that way - each with room to write the real answer, delivered as a real fillable PDF. Who uses it: Supervisors and safety coordinators planning work at height where tools or materials could fall; Companies needing documented evidence of a dropped-objects prevention plan for COR/SECOR audits or client prequalification; Sites with overhead work zones where a falling tool or material is a real risk to workers below.
Can we fill it in on a computer, or is it print-only?
Both. It is a fillable PDF, so every field can be typed into on a laptop or tablet and saved, or you can print it blank and fill it in by hand. Your company logo is added at no extra charge.
Does using this form make us compliant?
No single form makes a company compliant. A form is the evidence half of a safety program - it records that something was checked and by whom. It carries weight at audit time when the written program behind it says the check is required and how often. If that program does not exist yet, that is the part we write.
When do I get it?
Immediately after checkout as a download, and you can re-download it any time from your purchases page. Print or fill in as many copies as your own crews need.
From the team that wrote it
These forms come from a bigger program.
Inspection and competency forms are the evidence half of a safety program. If the program they belong to does not exist yet, or has not been updated in a few years, that is the part we write.
