Legal requirements for Working at Heights Training in the UK
Under the Work at Height Regulations 2005 (WAHR 2005), UK employers have a legal duty to make sure work at height is properly planned, appropriately supervised and carried out by competent people. The Health and Safety Executive (HSE) enforces these regulations and can issue fines for non-compliance. Falls from height are consistently the leading cause of fatal injury to workers in Great Britain, according to HSE statistics.
A valid Working at Heights Certificate demonstrates that an employee has received proper theory training in safe work at height. Employers who fail to provide this training risk prosecution, compensation claims from injured workers and increased insurance premiums. Investing in accredited Working at Heights Training protects your staff, your business and your reputation.
Why choose online Working at Heights Training over classroom courses
Traditional classroom-based theory training requires booking venues, hiring instructors and taking employees away from their duties for a full day. Our online Working at Heights Course delivers the same accredited theory content in around 45 minutes, at a fraction of the cost. Staff can complete their training during quiet periods, between shifts, or from home - eliminating downtime and travel expenses entirely.
