Coos County adopts fall protection and ladder safety policy effective Nov. 1
Summary
Commissioners adopted an updated county fall protection policy that incorporates ladder safety and input from the county safety committee; the resolution was approved with an effective date of Nov. 1, 2025.
Coos County adopted a combined fall protection and ladder safety policy after staff and safety‑committee review. County staff said the fall protection program was combined with ladder safety because the two topics often overlap in county operations; the policy also incorporated feedback from the Coos County Safety Committee and the county’s safety representative.
A motion to approve and sign Resolution 25‑10‑205L, making the policy effective Nov. 1, 2025, was made, seconded and adopted by the board. Commissioners made light remarks about prior slogan ideas but the record shows adoption without substantive objection.
The transcript did not include the full policy text in the record; staff will implement the policy per standard county procedures.
