Working at Height
![Page 4: CETI Programme. »Communication »Education »Training »Information.](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061305/55144bcb550346284e8b4ea3/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Working at height
• Falls from height are the biggest single cause of fatal injuries, and
• the second biggest cause of major injuries, caused by accidents at work .
• Each year around 50-60 fatalities and 4000 major injuries are caused by falls at work.
• Reducing this toll is one of the HSC’s Priority Programmes,
• aims to reduce the incidence of fatal and major injuries by 10% over 10 years from1999/2000.

Working at height: The most common cause of injuries ...
They occur when people are working on or near -
• Ladders
• Unprotected roof edges
• Unsafe or incomplete scaffolding
• Fragile materials, i.e., asbestos roofing
• Or through unsafe work practices
![Page 6: CETI Programme. »Communication »Education »Training »Information.](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061305/55144bcb550346284e8b4ea3/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
What can be done to prevent these injuries?
• Consider-
S.T.A.C.
![Page 7: CETI Programme. »Communication »Education »Training »Information.](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061305/55144bcb550346284e8b4ea3/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Remember - S.T.A.C.
• Stop Plan the job
•IN
•Rush
•Don’t
![Page 8: CETI Programme. »Communication »Education »Training »Information.](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061305/55144bcb550346284e8b4ea3/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Remember - S.T.A.C.
• Think What is the duration of the job, how many people are
required for the job, what tools are required to
do the job
![Page 9: CETI Programme. »Communication »Education »Training »Information.](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061305/55144bcb550346284e8b4ea3/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Remember - S.T.A.C.
• Avoid Can the job be done another way
How do I do it another way?
![Page 10: CETI Programme. »Communication »Education »Training »Information.](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061305/55144bcb550346284e8b4ea3/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Remember - S.T.A.C.
• Control Planning controls events, ensure personnel are competent, have
been instructed and trained Has the state of health of
those will be working at height been taken into
account?
![Page 11: CETI Programme. »Communication »Education »Training »Information.](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061305/55144bcb550346284e8b4ea3/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
The most common cause of injuries ...
• Is the usage of ladders
• Where the operatives failed to maintain a three point of contact with the ladder
• Over reaching, or
• Not siting the ladder on firm level ground
![Page 12: CETI Programme. »Communication »Education »Training »Information.](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061305/55144bcb550346284e8b4ea3/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Fall prevention
• Consider using stilts for internal ceiling work
• Towers or
• Scaffolding or
• Mobile Elevating Work Platforms (MEWP’s)
![Page 13: CETI Programme. »Communication »Education »Training »Information.](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061305/55144bcb550346284e8b4ea3/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Fall prevention
• Tower Scaffolds
-Ensure they have been erected on firm level ground
-There is internal access
-Overall height is less than 3x the min. base dimension
-Are inspected before and after use
![Page 14: CETI Programme. »Communication »Education »Training »Information.](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061305/55144bcb550346284e8b4ea3/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Fall prevention
• General Scaffolding
-Ensure they are erected by competent persons
-Double guard rails are fitted
-Where appropriate, scaffold has been tied and braced as necessary
- It is inspected regularly
![Page 15: CETI Programme. »Communication »Education »Training »Information.](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061305/55144bcb550346284e8b4ea3/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Fall prevention
• MEWP’s
-Ensure ground conditions are suitable
-Anticipate the load to be lifted
- Is the platform size big enough?
-Ask for the MEWP’s 6 monthly exam cert
-Ask for copies of maintenance records
-Is there provision for attaching fall arrest system
![Page 16: CETI Programme. »Communication »Education »Training »Information.](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061305/55144bcb550346284e8b4ea3/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Injury prevention• How to prevent injury should you take
a fall:
-Passive fall protection
-Fall bags for use under 2m in height
-Bean bags
-Air bags
-Close slung safety netting
![Page 17: CETI Programme. »Communication »Education »Training »Information.](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061305/55144bcb550346284e8b4ea3/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Injury prevention
• What of safety harnesses?
• When tied into a fall arrest system you may still hit the ground if the working platform is less than 5.25 meters
• You have to bear in mind that should someone fall they need to be rescued within twenty minutes to prevent trauma and how they are to be rescued
![Page 18: CETI Programme. »Communication »Education »Training »Information.](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061305/55144bcb550346284e8b4ea3/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Hierarchy for safe work at height
• 1. AVOID the risk by not working at height –
• Where it is reasonably practicable to carry out the work safely other than at a height, do so.
![Page 19: CETI Programme. »Communication »Education »Training »Information.](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061305/55144bcb550346284e8b4ea3/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Hierarchy for safe work at height
• 2. PREVENT falls - where it is not reasonably practicable to avoid work at height:-
• You should assess the risks and take measures to allow the work to be done whilst preventing so far as is reasonably practicable people or objects falling.
• This might include ensuring the work is carried out safely from an existing place of work; or choosing the right work equipment to prevent falls.
![Page 20: CETI Programme. »Communication »Education »Training »Information.](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061305/55144bcb550346284e8b4ea3/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Hierarchy for safe work at height
• 3. MITIGATE the consequences of a fall -
where the risk of people or objects falling still
remains you should take steps to minimize the
distance and consequences of such falls.
• This also involves the selection and use of
work equipment.
![Page 21: CETI Programme. »Communication »Education »Training »Information.](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061305/55144bcb550346284e8b4ea3/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Hierarchy for safe work at height
• 4. At all stages give collective protective
measures (e.g. guardrails, nets, airbags,
etc.) precedence over personal protective
measures (e.g. safety harnesses)
![Page 22: CETI Programme. »Communication »Education »Training »Information.](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061305/55144bcb550346284e8b4ea3/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Roof Work
• Identify all fragile materials
– This could be asbestos roofing
– Roofing lights: glass or otherwise
• Create safe access
• Ensure there is edge protection around the
platform
![Page 23: CETI Programme. »Communication »Education »Training »Information.](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061305/55144bcb550346284e8b4ea3/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Summary
Stop - Plan the jobThink- What is needed to do the jobAvoid - Can it be done differentlyControl - Use competent personnel
Manage risks from fragile surfaces, falling objects and danger areas (i.e., public pedestrian areas)

Working at Height
Don’t let Heath Robinson be your guide to safety. It’s your health and your quality
of
life that will suffer.
Remember your family needs you.
