How to Reduce Working at Height Risks
Effective working at height safety starts with proper planning, suitable supervision, competent workers and the correct use of equipment. Employers should avoid unnecessary work at height wherever possible and apply practical fall prevention measures when elevated work cannot be avoided.
Risk Assessment
Risk assessments help identify fall hazards, unsafe access points, fragile surfaces and other elevated work risks.
Fall Prevention
Fall prevention measures may include guardrails, access platforms, harness systems, barriers and safer systems of work.
Safe Work Planning
Proper planning helps organisations reduce unsafe behaviour, improve supervision and minimise workplace incidents.
Working at Height Risk Assessments
Working at height risk assessments should identify hazards, determine who may be harmed, evaluate existing controls, record findings and regularly review arrangements to ensure controls remain effective.
Identify Hazards
Assess hazards involving roofs, ladders, scaffolds, fragile surfaces, platforms, walkways and access equipment.
Review Control Measures
Review whether current safety arrangements are suitable and whether additional controls are required.
Maintain Documentation
Keep accurate records of inspections, maintenance, risk assessments and working at height procedures.
Working at Height Equipment & PPE
Working at height equipment may include ladders, access towers, scaffolding, MEWPs, harnesses, lanyards and collective fall prevention systems. Suitable PPE and properly maintained equipment play an important role in reducing workplace risk.
Ladders & Access Equipment
Use ladders and access equipment correctly and ensure they are suitable, stable and regularly inspected.
Harnesses & Fall Protection
Harnesses and lanyards help reduce the consequences of falls when collective protection cannot eliminate risk.
Competence & Training
Workers carrying out elevated work activities should receive suitable training and understand safe procedures.
Working at height training helps organisations improve safety awareness, reduce fall risks, support compliance and create safer elevated working environments.
