WAH in the Workplace
Safe working at Height practices are essential in the workplace, and at home. More than 40% of all fatalities in the construction industry worldwide, are a result of a fall from height. In Ireland, Health & Safety legislation requires that anyone who carries out working at height is trained, careful planning is carried out before any work commences, and anyone who uses personal fall protection equipment must be trained in the safe use and inspection of the equipment, emphasizing work at height safety.
Controlling WAH Risks:
It is necessary to carry out a work at height risk assessment before making an informed decision on what control measures need to be implemented to eliminate or minimise the consequences of a fall from height occurring. This assessment is a critical component of effective WAH safety procedures.
