Special Report: The 2006 International Society for Fall Protection (ISFP) Symposium Proceedings

The ISFP The International Society for Fall Protection (ISFP), founded in 1988, is a member supported, nonprofi t international organization whose goal is to reduce deaths and injuries from falls both on and off the job.

To achieve this goal, the ISFP promotes fall protection education, training, and research, supports development and promotion of international standards, and provides a forum for communication and idea exchange among members and other interested parties.
