Course Details

Falls from heights or elevated platforms are the leading causes of accidents and worker fatalities in the general industry. Each year, a large number of workers are either killed or suffer major injuries as a result of falls at work. Accidents involving falls are generally complex events, frequently involving a variety of factors.

Fall protection is required whenever work is performed in an area 2 meters and above. Fall arresting systems, which include lifelines, body harnesses, and other associated equipment, are used when fall hazards cannot be controlled by passive or active means. These systems are designed to stop a free fall while limiting the forces imposed on the wearer. Training to raise workers' awareness of the potential risks of working at heights is a primary need.
