It comes as no surprise that falls are a leading cause of workplace injuries – even resulting in fatalities. The human costs of avoiding proper training for work at height can be devastating.
It’s important to ensure any employee working at height has been trained and that suitable control measures are in place to reduce the risk of a fall. More than just best practice, training for working at height is a legal requirement in many countries.
Yes, work from height tasks require a risk assessment. Manual work at height should only be undertaken if there is no other option and it should be planned appropriately to avoid any unnecessary health and safety risks. Only people qualified and trained to work at height should be assigned this work.
The hazards of working at height include anything that makes a fall more likely. This includes poor weather conditions, poor maintenance of working at height tools such as ladders and harnesses, unprotected roof spaces or lack of training for the people carrying out the work. It is the employer’s responsibility to control them.
Current guidelines state that a harness should be worn if a fall of 6 feet or more is possible. However, employers can provide a harness for smaller heights than this if they feel it would be safer. If a worker would like a harness for a job, it is good practice to provide them with one.
