Falling Hazards

Working at height presents one of the most challenging environments for health and safety professionals and remains a significant cause of fatalities and major injuries. Mitigation should involve both collective and individual protection factors, protecting all workers passively as well as actively targeting the individual. All tasks "at height" should only be performed by appropriately trained and equipped workers with the skills to properly assess the associated risks.
