dc.description.abstract- The number of construction workers fall to death over the years have increased and that in 2012 falls, slips or trips took the lives of 668 workers. Despite the existence of OSHA regulation, the incidence and accidents rate are high which indicate the need for further improvement on the existing regulation. This study will attempt to examine the compliance with fall safety documents in construction industry with a view to improve fall prevention employed on sites. The study strategy adopted was to observe the compliance with a range of standard safety documents and reviewing the available company document relevant to fall safety management. 19 construction sites meet the research criteria and the general assessment of the sites document was conducted using the assessment criteria adopted for the study. The documentation assessment indicates the quantity of safety documentation available on site; it was evident that the majority of the document lacked quality. Safety plans were in general very broad and generic. It can be concluded that there is much that could be done in the majority of the sites. A systematic evaluation strategy needs to be urgently developed in order to improve the strengths and the weakness of various safety documents.en_US
