// Principles for Working at Height

Overview

Working at height is one of the most hazardous activities, leading to fatalities and severe injuries. The most common cases involve falls from roofs, ladders, and fragile surfaces. It is essential to take proper precautions to protect workers from falling, which can cause serious harm. Employers have a legal obligation to ensure that these tasks are carried out with all the necessary safety measures. Implementing a working-at-height training program can help organizations meet their legal requirements and operational control obligations as per the ISO 45001:2018 standard.

Emergency preparedness is a key component woven into the fabric of the course. Participants are guided through the development of rescue plans and emergency response procedures specific to working at height. Simulated scenarios and practical exercises enhance their ability to respond effectively in the event of an incident, reinforcing the importance of swift and well-coordinated action.
