Title: Z133 Safety Standards & Procedures Workshop Summary, Part 1
Speaker: Steve Lane & Erick Palacios
Summary: ANSI® Z133: The American National Standard for Arboricultural Operations — Safety Requirements (Z133) represents the industry standard for performing tree care operations. Because the International Society of Arboriculture (ISA) is passionate about promoting safe and efficient work environments within the arboriculture profession, ISA is designing the Z133 Safety Standards and Procedures Workshop. Students will learn about the incidents that cause arborists the most injuries and fatalities, and become familiar with the Z133 standards that, if followed, could mitigate life-threatening issues.
The two facilitators, Steve Lane and Erick Palacios, will give attendants the first look at two modules being developed for the eight-hour ISA Z133 workshop. A major part of the workshop will be the opportunity for participants to provide feedback on the workshop and provide suggestions to improve the workshop.
Location: Village of Lombard, 255 E. Wilson Ave., Lombard, IL
