As we've discussed previously, working at heights can be very dangerous, and failure to observe the proper safety regulations can lead to dire consequences. Height safety guidelines are in place to keep you from falling and, if you do fall, to prevent you from being badly hurt; you may feel that you are careful or sure-footed enough not to need a safety harness, but one slip is all it takes and it's never worth taking that risk.
With all of this in mind, we at SafetyLiftinGear would like to draw your attention to the following Height Safety Checklist. These safety precautions are recommended by the HSE (Health and Safety Executive), so you can rest assured that they were thought up with worker safety in mind.
*To ensure worker safety, ladders should reach at least 0.9m (35 and a half inches) beyond the stepping-off point.
Visit SafetyLiftinGear's Height Safety department to ensure that you have everything you need to safely work at height.
