FAQ’s Working at Height Rescue

1. What is considered ‘working at height’?

Working at height refers to any work where there is a risk of a fall liable to cause personal injury. This includes working on ladders, roofs, scaffolding, or any elevated area. The definition is broad and includes working above ground/floor level, near an edge through which a person could fall, or at ground level adjacent to an excavation.

2. Why is a rescue plan important for working at height?

A rescue plan is crucial because it ensures that immediate and effective measures are in place to rescue someone if a fall occurs. The plan minimises risks to the person’s health and life during and after the rescue. It’s a critical component of working at height safety protocols, ensuring that emergency services can be alerted and respond promptly if needed, and that first aid or medical treatment is administered as quickly as possible.

3. What are the key components of a working at heights rescue plan?

A comprehensive rescue plan should include the following: • Identification of potential fall hazards and rescue needs. • Details on the rescue equipment to be used and its location. • Specific rescue procedures tailored to the site and types of potential accidents. • Training requirements for personnel involved in the rescue. • Communication procedures before, during, and after a rescue. • A method for the prompt and effective initiation of the rescue operation.

4. How often should workers receive training for working at height?

The frequency of training for working at height depends on several factors. These include the nature of the work, changes in equipment or safety regulations, and the introduction of new hazards. However, it’s generally recommended that workers receive formal training at least annually to refresh their knowledge and skills. More frequent training may be necessary if significant changes occur in their work environment or equipment.
