Frequently Asked Questions
The Work at Height Regulations 2005 require employers to make sure anyone working at height is competent, and training is part of being competent. The rules apply to any work where a fall could cause injury, not only to work above a set height.
Any place where a person could fall a distance liable to cause injury. That includes ladders and stepladders, scaffolds, flat roofs, mezzanines, and working near floor openings or edges, even at low levels.
It covers the hierarchy of control for avoiding and reducing risk, choosing the right access equipment, inspecting ladders and other equipment, fragile surfaces, and how to plan and supervise work at height safely.
Anyone who works above ground level where a fall could cause injury: warehouse staff, maintenance and facilities teams, construction trades, window cleaners, and the managers who plan and supervise the work.
