Additionally, we’ll offer you the opportunity to download a comprehensive PowerPoint presentation (PPT) to further educate yourself or your team on this critical subject.

Understanding Work at Height

Before we delve into the hazards and safety measures, let’s clarify what ‘work at height’ means. Working at height refers to any job that takes place at a location where someone could fall from it, causing injury. This includes activities carried out on ladders, scaffolds, roofs, and even elevated platforms.

Common Work at Height Hazards

Falling from heights is one of the most common accidents in the workplace. It can result from slips, trips, or loss of balance, and the consequences can be severe, even fatal. It’s crucial to understand the factors that contribute to falls and how to prevent them.

Equipment Failure

The equipment used for work at height, such as scaffolding, ladders, or safety harnesses, can fail. This may happen due to wear and tear, improper maintenance, or overloading. Regular inspections and proper use of equipment are vital to prevent accidents.

Weather Conditions

Weather can greatly affect the safety of working at heights. Strong winds, rain, or icy conditions can increase the risk of accidents. Understanding how weather can impact safety and taking necessary precautions is essential.

Importance of Safety Precautions

Safety precautions are paramount in preventing work-at-height accidents. They not only save lives but also ensure the efficient and smooth execution of tasks. Here are key safety measures to consider:

Safety Equipment and Gear

Safety harnesses are a lifeline for workers at height. They distribute force across the body, reducing the risk of injury during falls. Proper fitting and maintenance are essential for harnesses to work effectively.

Guardrails provide a physical barrier to prevent workers from accidentally stepping or falling off edges. They are a simple yet effective safety measure.

Helmets protect workers from head injuries caused by falling objects. They should be worn at all times when there is a risk of objects falling from above.

Proper Training

Proper training is the cornerstone of work-at-height safety. All workers must be trained in the safe use of equipment, hazard recognition, and emergency procedures.

Safety Procedures and Protocols

Before any work at height begins, a comprehensive risk assessment should be conducted. This identifies potential hazards and allows for the development of safe working procedures.

Emergency Response Plans

In the event of an accident, an emergency response plan is critical. This should include first aid procedures and the process for seeking immediate medical attention.

Regulatory Compliance

To maintain a safe working environment, it is essential to adhere to local safety regulations and standards. Non-compliance can lead to legal consequences and, more importantly, jeopardize the safety of workers.

ONG Kong construction industry has a very high accident record rate. Highest numbers of accidents have occurred due to falling from height. This paper presents a research that was carried out through case studies on 14 sites where personnel were working at a height. The study indicates that 65% of the respondents did not have a safety management system in force while the rest had a reasonably sound system and complied with it. Further, a detailed study was carried out on the circumstances that led to a major accident causing many fatalities. Results point to the fact that safety management systems implemented by most construction companies lack effectiveness. Poor motivation and lack of commitment to eliminate or reduce risks and achieve progressive improvement of safety standards for all risk areas was observed. Findings suggest that financial pressure may have made the companies objectives different from those that are safety related.

Journal Interdisciplinary Description of Complex Systems

Aleksandar Sušić , Josip Hoster

The objective of this article is to review the critical conditions of a single beam ladder using the temporospatial ladder stability analysis with integrated biomechanical considerations. From the ergonomic perspective, the non-occupational incidents may involve even more critical parameters than the occupational incidents. This is because the occupational users are assumed to have necessary psychophysical abilities, experience, training and awareness of appropriate standards and regulations, and are moreover familiar with proper ladder settings and their utilization, unlike most of the non-occupational users. Such a perspective supports our safety concern about ladder use, especially for non-occupational environments, what is in focus of this article. Computational modelling of expected ladder ascent and usage were exploited, with taking into consideration the real time kinetics and kinematics, anthropometry of the climber and variable contact friction factors. The results are shown in a parametric diagram, that revises and confirms the guideline for setting the ladder slant at 75,5°. Then, regardless of the climber's mass, the intensity of the ascent (period or cycle duration, hence the extremes in acceleration), and of the low coefficient of friction at the ground contact, the climb is safe. Created computational ladder model and representative equations are validated, henceforth the created computational model is attributed the ability to revise the ladder use recommendations. Created and validated model is expected to makes possible a further extension of the set of the considered and analysed ladder usage parameters. Hence, inclusivity of wider range of parameters of ladder utilization and design is expected to reveal other underestimated or neglected factors that might appear as critical ones.

WORKING at HEIGHTS If only I was wearing a safety harness !!

Introduction Ladder Safety Safe Roofwork Scaffolding Mobile Scaffolds Mobile Elevated Working Platforms Fall Speed v’s Reaction Time Fall Protection Working at HeightsPresentation Contents

Falls are the number one cause of fatalities in the construction industry accounting for approximately 56% of all fatalities • All employees shall be protected from falls of 2m or more by the use of an approved fall protection system • Railings are required at permanent elevated locations greater than or equal to 1.3m THE PAST

Lethal Ladders: Make sure the ladder is:- • Right for the job. Would scaffolding or a cherry picker be better? • In good shape. • Secured near the top. • On a firm base and footing: 4 up – 1 out • Rising at least 1 meter beyond the landing place OR that there is a proper hand hold. • Always have a firm grip on the ladder and keep a good balance. • Keep you hands free and tools in a shoulder bag or belt attachment

Lethal Ladders: Use of Ladders:- • Work should only be carried out from a ladder when the job is of short duration and can be carried out safely. • For added safety the base of the ladder should be staked or buried to prevent slipping. • Ensure your footware is free from excessive mud or grease before you climb up the ladder. • ALWAYS Face the ladder.

Lethal Ladders: Hazards of Ladders:- • Don’t stand ladder on drum, box or other unstable base • Never attempt to repair broken ladders • Never carry loads up ladders – hoist it up • Ladder rungs must not be used as improvised ramps • When using metel or metal-reinforced ladders, make sure there are no electrical hazards in the near vicinity

“No matter how quickly a job can be done, there is always time to fall” Ladder Safety Unsafe Safe

The Roof: A Risky Place To Be Before Working on Roofs:- • Fragile materials should be identified and precautions decided • Roof edge barriers (or scaffolds) must be erected tp prevent people and materials falling • Access ladders must be a safe distance above the stepping-off point and must be secured • Where access ladders rise above 9meters a safe intermediate platform must be provided

The Roof: A Risky Place To Be Hazards of Working on Roofs:- • If you can fall more than 2 meters, guardrails and toeboards must be erected • Hazards resulting from adverse weather conditions must be anticipated, and suitable precautions taken • Wet windy or Icy weather can seriously affect safety

Scaffolding • Using ladders or scaffolding without proper fixing is crazy • Putting up scaffolding, removing ties and taking it down again is a job for trained and experienced scaffolders. Leave it to them • Never use incomplete scaffolding always inspect before use • Make sure there is safe access, hand rails and toe boards at all edges • Things fall on sites, wear your helmet

Mobile Scaffold Towers • Before Erection: • Check all components are in good condition • Check wheels for effective rotation • Check brakes and locking devices work correctly • Prior to erecting towers on suspended floors, ensure bearing capacity of floor is sufficient for the planned load Before Use: • Ensure the tower is vertical and square • Towers must not be used unless the wheels are locked • Check that outriggers are set correctly and secured • Ensure the platform is fully boarded out and guardrails and toe boards are fitted if working platform is over 2 meters

Mobile Elevated Work Platforms Do not operate without pre-use inspection and unless you are trained Check condition of tyres, toe boards and guardrails, look for leaking hydraulic fluids Look out for overhead obstructions such as power cables, unstable ground, other equipment or personnel near-by Only use on firm level ground, make sure outriggers are properly extended and chocked before raising the platform Always wear a safety harness secured to the platform by lanyard. Safety means staying in the basket and not climbing on the guardrails Place barricades and warning signs around the planned working radius Traveling with a boom, is always in the direction of travel and at creep speed and only if equipment is designed to allow this Know what to do if machine fails with platform in raised position

FALL SPEED V’s REACTION TIME In 1 second your body will fall 10m • Good body reaction time • = 0.2 seconds • Travel distance in 0.2 seconds = 2m By the time you react your body will be 2m below where you were standing

Fall arrest: Limits free fall to within 2 vertical metres of the initiation point which reduces force by decreasing fall distance Consists of a(n) Lanyard Anchorage Point Full Body Harness Attachment Strap Fall Protection

Lanyards should: Be inspected prior to use Be protected against being cut or abraded Have a minimum breaking strength of 2270kg Be the appropriate length Be attached to an anchorage not to itself Fall ProtectionLanyardA device made of rope, wire or nylon strap used to connect the individual to an anchorage point and stop the individual in the event of a fall

Safety Equipment for Fall-Arrest Shock Absorbing Lanyards: Material in the pack tears absorbing shock and reducing risk of injury. Available with web or rope lanyards. Twin Tailed Lanyard: The expandable twin tailed lanyard is an ideal choice for situations where 100% tie-off is required. Expandable Lanyard: Especially useful for scaffolds, steel erectors and construction workers where tripping might be a risk.

Anchorage points used for attachment of personal fall arrest equipment must be: Located at or above the employee’s waist Capable of supporting more than 2270kg per employee Designed and built to hold the maximum force of the fall arrest Fall ProtectionAnchorage PointA secure point of attachment for lifelines, lanyards or deceleration devices

Full body harness: The attachment point of a body harness is located in the center of the wearer’s back near shoulder level Body belts are not allowed on sites Snaphooks shall be a double locking-type Fall Protection

WHAT YOU NEED? • Full body harness complete with rear dorsal ring (EN 361) • 1.75m fixed length lanyard (EN 362) • Shock absorbing device (EN 355) • 55mm opening scaffold hook for one handed operation (EN 362)

Care for fall arrest systems: After a fall arrest, the equipment will no longer be used (equipment will be disposed of or destroyed) Clean equipment after use Air dry equipment, do not hang in direct sunlight Store equipment in a cool, dark, dry well ventilated place Fall Protection

No job is so important that it cannot be done safely UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES ARE PERSONS WORKING ON THIS SITE TO PUT THEMSELVES IN DANGER BEST - BE Safe Today Working at Heights

5 Safety Tips for Working at Heights.

Heights are unavoidable while working at a site but working safely on those heights is totally your call. Working safely at heights is not about luck or chance, it requires a lot of preparation, education and determination. A fall from a height is simply deadly and it just takes a second for this fall. Therefore, employers must be fully prepared to protect their workers who work at heights and consider some tips for the same. Employ Rails: Rails are the best passive protection for workers working at heights because even if you fall, you will fall within the rail and catch hold of it easily. They are the best way to work on heights and are easily available in markets in different materials and lengths. Buy it and you will find that working at heights is not that difficult also. Choose appropriate PPE: While working at heights, ensure a proper selection of PPE. A harness is a must while climbing the heights. The harness should be of the right material and should have passed the safety tests. Remember, the harness of one size won’t fit all. Therefore, workers must properly adjust the harness so that it fits them correctly. Each situation demands different PPE and therefore one must evaluate and understand the working conditions properly in order to avoid any fall later. Check your selected PPE: It is important to check your equipment before using it. Even if you are using them daily inspect them briefly before finally climbing with it. Here, workers should understand that what is acceptable and what is not, what they are looking for and what they should do in case they encounter a problem. The check should be brief but should never be ignored. Select best means of working at heights: Since every situation is different, your protection measure should also be different. Somewhere you will find rails adequate while at another place a ladder would be the best choice for you. Depending on the type of height you should choose between the harness and lanyard. Thus, it all depends on the right evaluation of your situations and the right selection of the equipment for completing your task safely. Use ladders properly: Simply because you find ladders at home and almost at every workplace, does not mean that you know it and you gonna do it properly. A fall from a ladder is a common sight because we take its use for granted. Even though you have used ladder a lot of times at home does not mean that you will be successful in using it at workplace also. Make sure that ladders are in proper conditions and you have a right grip of it while climbing up. Figure out that is it the right mean to do your work at height and do not forget to wear your helmet and safety jacket . Because a simplest of fall can be a might one!
