Fundamentals of Working at Height
2 days|Delivered on request
Fundamentals of Working at Height is built for delegates who need to be useful in this area quickly. It starts at first principles and works through permit to work systems and contractor safety management without assuming prior specialist training. The programme exists because safety systems are often documented to a standard that daily practice does not match, and because capability in this area is usually built on the job with no structure behind it. Delegates leave able to work confidently with working at height, emergency preparedness and legal appointments and duties in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Bring working at height into line with current good practice, measured against the Construction Regulations
- Review emergency preparedness and say plainly whether it is working
- Put legal appointments and duties on a footing they can defend to a reviewer
