FAQs
Working at Height Training
Anyone working at height should be identified as competent to carry out the tasks required. This involves ensuring they have sufficient skills, knowledge, and experience. This can be demonstrated through working at height training qualifications. Anyone taking part in working at height training does not have to be a competent person as long as they are supervised by somebody who has been deemed competent.
The level of skills, knowledge, and experience required to be classed as competent depends on the task required. For example, tasks that are low-risk and short duration may require no more than short instruction and appropriate training. On the other hand, tasks such as drawing up plans for complex scaffold assembly will require a higher level of skills, knowledge, and experience. Specialist working at height training schemes and certification is one way to demonstrate competence for higher-level tasks.
The Work at Height Regulations 2005 (WAHR) apply to all work where a fall could cause personal injury. They place duties on employers and anyone who controls work at height, including contractors and building owners.
To comply with WAHR, duty holders must ensure that:
All work at height is properly planned and organised
Anyone involved in work at height is competent
Risks are assessed and suitable work equipment is selected and used
Risks associated with fragile surfaces are effectively managed
All work at height equipment is regularly inspected and properly maintained
If you would like, I can shorten this further or align it more closely with HSE-style wording.
Work at height includes any task carried out where a person could fall and suffer injury if proper precautions are not in place. This covers work above ground level, near edges, or where there is a risk of falling into an opening from ground level. A fall from height must involve a fall from one level to another, so slips or trips on the same level, and falls on permanent staircases, are not classed as falls from height.
A lack of proper working at height training is a leading cause of serious and fatal falls. Effective training equips workers with the skills and knowledge to work safely, reduces the risk of accidents, and helps create a safer environment for everyone involved.
As well as receiving the correct working at height training, workers should complete training every 3 years to refresh skills and renew their certificate. Regular refresher training helps reinforce safe working practices, keeps workers up to date with new equipment and procedures, and addresses any gaps in knowledge or competence that may develop over time.
Eurosafe offers a range of industry-leading height safety training courses tailored to individual roles and site requirements. Designed by fall protection specialists, our training ensures workers receive the appropriate level of instruction to work safely and minimise risk.
