Working At Height
“The working at height regulations 2005”
Work at height means work in any place where if there were no precautions in place, a person could fall a distance liable to cause personal injury.
​
One of the most common causes of fatal injuries across all industries are falls from height.
Implementing a thorough risk assessment is essential when employees will be conducting any working at height activity.
Employers and those in control of any work at height activity must make sure work is carefully planned, supervised and carried out by competent people. This includes using the right type of equipment for working at height.
