Training Working At Heights
Falling from heights is one of the most common causes of death on construction sites, but in any type of business, working at height is a high risk activity. Working from ladders, scaffolds and platforms are obvious examples, but there are many more activities where people are required to work at height. Examples include working on roofs and over tanks, pits and structures. Even changing a ceiling light in an office involves working at heights.The āWorking at Heightsā Awareness Training is designed to provide personnel with the ability to recognize the potential for serious injury when working at heights and determine safe methods available to minimize the risks involved. Reducing accidents in the work place is a sound management practice. Not only does it make your workforce happier, but you will save money through improved output and reduce the risk of fines and compensation claims. Many work activities involve working at height.
