HSE Guidance for Working at Height

LoadingAdd to my saved searches

The Health and Safety Executive (HSE) has published some guidance for working at height in relation to the Work at Height Regulations 2005.

Within the construction industry, workers are often at risk of falling from height, and objects that fall from height can also pose a hazard, not only to staff, but the general public as well.

This is why there are regulations in place to ensure that construction companies do their utmost to protect their workforce and the public, and that individuals do their best to keep themselves safe as well as others around them. Ultimately, safety is everyone’s responsibility.
