Content review:

In 2005/2006 falls from height accounted for 46 fatal accidents and around 3500 major injuries. They remain the biggest single cause of workplace fatality and major injury. (Source: HSE)

Many of these injuries and fatalities could have been avoided with appropriate training and proper understanding of safety equipment.

The Work at Height Regulations 2005 state that:

  • All work at height must be properly planned and organized
  • All involved are competent
  • Risks are assessed
  • Suitable equipment is selected, used, inspected and maintained

Evolution offer a one day training course to ensure all those working at height are familiar with all regulations and use of appropriate equipment.

The course includes theory and hands-on practical sessions. This will include correct fitting and care of Personal Protective Equipment.
