Heightened focus for inspectors – too many fall from height incidents

⚠️ Control measures for work at height in the construction industry have always been closely monitored, however, due to the recent influx of incidents, inspectors are given a heightened focus on work at height controls.


The most common issues are related to scaffolding at 37% and safe work method statements at 13%.


What Safety Inspectors look for when performing audits on construction sites in regard to working from height:

• Safe work method statements

• Site supervision

• Edge protection

• Scaffold

• Work platform

• Use of trestle ladders

• Fall arrest platforms

• Ladders

• Travel restraint systems

• Stair void protection
