1/2 Day Course from £65+VAT*
Course Overview
Falls from a height are considered to be the main contributor to workplace fatalities according to the latest HSE statistics.
Gain an understanding of the risks associated with work at heights in order to comply with the Work at Height Regulations 2005.
Our half day Working At Height course covers the health & safety considerations for both employees and employers who are working in low risk environments. (A low risk environment is defined as one where access is simple and anchors are easily identifiable).
The course not only covers the risks of working at height, but also working on fragile roof surfaces.
Regulation Updates
Following the removal of the “2 metre rule” from the regulations means that any person working in an elevated position (off the ground) is deemed to be working at height. The Work at Height Regulations 2005, apply to all work at height where there is a risk of a fall liable to cause personal injury.
