Working At Heights Medicals


Work at height means work in any place where, if precautions were not taken, a person could fall down and injure themselves. If your staff:

  • Work above ground level
  • Could fall from an edge, through an opening or fragile surface; or
  • Could fall from ground level into an opening in a floor or hole in the ground
    They will be working at height, because they can fall from one level to another.

Examples of Work at Height include;

  • Using working platforms such as scaffolds, tower scaffolds, cherry pickers, scissor lifts and podium steps
  • Work on a roof, piece of plant or equipment
  • Using ladders or stepladders.
