In a nutshell
The Work at Height Regulations 2005 mean employers, the self-employed and anyone who controls the work of others (such as facilities managers or building owners) have a duty to ensure competent working at height. This course will give you the knowledge you need.
This course is for...
…anyone who works at height where there’s risk of a fall liable to cause personal injury.

On this half-day (3 hour) course you’ll be given an understanding of the importance of:
• Planning and organising work at height
• The need to assess risks from work at height and select and use appropriate work equipment
• Properly managing the risks of working on or near fragile surfaces
• Inspecting and maintaining the equipment used for work at height
On completing the course you’ll be awarded a Coleg Gwent certificate of attendance, and may progress to one of our accredited health and safety qualifications.
