What is Working at Height Training?

Working at height remains one of the leading causes of fatal and serious workplace injuries. Falls from ladders, scaffolding, roofs and other access equipment can result in life-changing injuries or worse if risks are not properly controlled.

This Working at Height Training course provides delegates with a clear understanding of how to plan and carry out work at height safely. It focuses on recognising common hazards, selecting the correct access equipment and applying appropriate control measures to reduce risk.

The training is practical and relevant, helping workers understand how to follow safe systems of work and comply with legal requirements when working at height.
