It is a legal requirement for employers to provide adequate health and safety training for their employees when they are working at height. An employer could be liable to prosecution, including heavy fines and even imprisonment in some cases if they fail to provide adequate safety training. What is Working at Height? Working at height is defined as any work at a workplace from which a person could be injured falling from any height, even at or below ground level. It does not apply to permanent stairways or travel to or from work. For example, a sales assistant on a stepladder would be working at height. Working at Height Regulations 2005 The Working at height Regulations 2005 have the force of law and are designed to prevent injuries and deaths, by establishing minimum requirements for working at height. The regulations apply to all employers, the self–employed and any person who controls the work of others such as a building’s owners who contracts others to be working at height.
