Working at height - legislation

Avoid:
risk by not working at height where it is reasonably

practicable to carry out work safely by other means
Prevent: falls where it is not reasonably practicable to avoid work at

height you should assess risks and take measures to allow
work to be done whilst preventing so far as is reasonably
practicable, people or objects falling. This might include
ensuring work is carried out from an existing place of work; or
choosing right work equipment
Minimise: consequences of a fall where risk of people or objects
falling still remains you should take steps to minimise
distance and consequences of such falls. This also involves
selection and safe use of work equipment
GC2 Slide 39
January 2014
Avoid the Work at Height
Modify the process

Can the work be done at ground level? Long handed tools /
equipment

Minimise the consequence of the fall:
Collective Measure before Individual Measures
GC2 Slide 43
January 2014
HSE guidance
Start by considering how a fall can be prevented using collective

protection
If this is not reasonably practicable consider personal prevention
equipment
Otherwise minimise risk with collective equipment
If this is not reasonably practicable look at minimising risk with
personal equipment
Ladders, stilts, etc come at bottom of hierarchy: last to be chosen
GC2 Slide 44
January 2014
Page 22

Phone : +44 (0)161 643 2259
