Work safely at heights
August 08, 2025
Working at heights? Prioritise safety.
Fall from heights can cause serious work-related injuries, and even death.
Most fall injuries occur when employers and workers get too comfortable with heights and start letting safety procedures slide.
Even if you’ve worked at heights most of your life, a fall can happen quickly and catch you by surprise.
Working at height includes performing tasks where there’s a risk of falling, like on scaffolding, elevated platforms, roofs, or any other work area off the ground.
