Make considerations for eliminating or minimizing all swing fall hazards. Swing falls occur when the anchor is
not directly above the location where a fall occurs. Always work as close to in line with the anchor point as
possible. Swing falls significantly increase the likelihood of serious injury or death in the event of a fall.
