We offer a range of Working at Height courses for operatives; supervisors; and managers. The Work at Height Regulations apply to all work at height where there is a risk of a fall liable to cause personal injury. The regulations place duties on employers, the self-employed, and any person that controls the work of others (for example facilities managers or building owners who may contract others to work at height).
Falls from height remain the most common cause of workplace fatality. In 2012/13 there were 46 fatalities*, over 2,500 major injuries and a further 2,727 injuries that caused the injured person to be off work for over 7 days, due to a fall from height. HSS Training has the right course to equip your workforce with the necessary knowledge and skills to prevent accidents when working at height.

This includes involvement in organisation, planning, supervision, and the supply and maintenance of equipment. Where other precautions do not entirely eliminate the risk of a fall occurring, you must (as far as it is reasonably practicable to do so) train those who will be working at height how to avoid falling, and how to avoid or minimise injury to themselves should they fall.

Do I need to have any previous experience?
No, Generally we can train most people who have never used this type of equipment before.
Does training have an expiry/refresher date?
Yes, The authorities (HSE) generally work on the basis that refresher training is carried out every three years unless, specified otherwise by the training organisation. Certificates and cards are valid for a period of 3 years after training except, practical climbing courses which are valid for only 12 months. It is highly recommended that refresher training is undertaken after this period to ensure trainees keep up their skill levels and update them on any changes to the previous training. This is particularly important for rescue and climbing type courses.
Do I need to be medically fit?
Yes, work at height regulations anyone who is required to use and wear fall arrest equipment or deploys and operates rescue equipment relating to these training courses should be considered as not having any condition that may prevent and or adversely affect their personal health and safety including that of any other training delegates whilst on the course. Whilst we do not discriminate on the grounds of disability we would remind you that each party has a duty of care for themselves and others under health and safety legislation. Please contact our training administrator if you need further guidance on these issues.
Do I need any other safety equipment?
Possibly, If there is a requirement to use specific safety equipment (hard hats, gloves, eye protection) during training on the customer?s premises then yes, and the customer is responsible for the provision of such equipment. If training is on our training premises then the appropriate safety equipment will be provided as necessary.
Is there a practical assessment?
Yes, Training delegates will be assessed during training as appropriate on their ability to perform practical tasks in line with the training given, and above all safely. (i.e. equipment Inspection, carrying out rescues). These practical tasks may be performed indoors or outdoors as required. A written record of practical assessment will be recorded for each delegate indicating whether the required standard has been achieved or not. It is strongly advised that organisations carry out regular practice drills as appropriate to procedures learned in order to maintain skill levels. Equipment inspection skills should also be carried out regularly.
Is there a theory assessment?
Yes, Training delegates will be assessed as appropriate with a written assessment based on the course content to ensure the key learning points have been fully understood. A written record of assessment will be recorded for each delegate.
Will handouts or course materials be issued?
Yes, Course booklets and other key information may be issued as appropriate in the form of a training pack to each training delegate.
Will certificates be issued and when?
Yes, Training certificates will only be issued to those training delegates who successfully complete both practical and theory assessments. Certificates will normally be posted back after full payment of all training fees has been received.
Picture training cards?
Yes, we issue a credit card size card with the training delegates photograph and course details and expiry date on the front. On the reverse side will be a list of the training courses successfully passed. This is useful to delegates who can carry the card on site to prove competency during audits or if the authorities (HSE) visit. There is no charge for the first card. However, for lost or replacement cards a small administration charge may be incurred.
