Overview

Working at height comes with serious risks, and using a safety harness incorrectly can be just as dangerous as not using one at all. Poor fitting, incorrect use, or lack of inspection can lead to serious injury or fatal consequences in the event of a fall. 

​

The issue is often not the equipment — it’s a lack of understanding around how to use it properly.

​

This course is designed to give delegates the knowledge and confidence to use harnesses and fall protection equipment safely and effectively.
