It is not only the construction industry that requires safe access solutions. Every office, factory and workplace in the country needs solutions for safely working at height.
43% of FATAL injuries in the workplace from a FALL from HEIGHT occur at 2m or BELOW. (Source: HSC Statistics of Fatal injuries 2005/06)
The Work at Height Regulations 2005 requires all employers to protect their employees from the risk of fall from their place of work. People carrying out a task at height should be competent and have the appropriate equipment to do so.
Tasks carried out at low level heights can affect almost ALL employees and often unsuitable equipment is selected. An employer needs to protect their employees from the risk of fall from height and protect themselves from opportunistic litigation.
The first step to a safer work environment is training and educating people to change their attitude to safety in the workplace.
