Yes. OSHA requires employers to provide for prompt rescue if a fall occurs (or ensure the worker can self-rescue), in both:

• Construction
• General industry

OSHA has also clarified that the rule does not specifically require a written rescue plan, but employers still must be capable of prompt rescue.
In California, Cal-OSHA explicitly requires a rescue plan and rescue equipment when PFAS are used.
