Legislation Update – Work at Height

Posted on April 30, 2012 by Up and Under Group

Falling from height remains a major cause of deaths and major injuries in the workplace.

The 2005 Work at Height Regulations and associated guidance are now up for review which will need to be completed by April 2013. In 2007, the HSE commissioned a report that concluded the 2005 regulations were starting to have an impact in a number of areas.  This is very positive news and hopefully the review will lead to a further reduction in the number of fatalities and injuries.
