Safety at Work

Health and Safety at work is critically important, we as duty holders always ensure:

• all work at height is properly planned and organised;
• those involved in work at height are competent;
• the risks from work at height are assessed and appropriate work equipment is selected and used;
• the risks from fragile surfaces are properly controlled; and
• equipment for work at height is properly inspected and maintained.

When working we will always:

• avoid work at height where we can;
• use work equipment or other measures to prevent falls where we cannot avoid working at height; and
• where we cannot eliminate the risk of a fall, use work equipment or other measures to minimise the distance and consequences of a fall should one occur.
