Essential Fall Safety Tips for Working at Heights


Fall safety tips for working at heights

As the fall season brings cooler weather, working at heights becomes more challenging due to unpredictable conditions like rain, wind, and slippery surfaces. At Holmes Safety Training, we prioritize equipping workers with the skills and knowledge to stay safe in these environments. Here are essential tips to keep your team safe this season:


  1. Wear Proper PPE: Equip workers with non-slip boots, waterproof clothing, and high-visibility gear to ensure they stay dry and visible.


  2. Check Harness Fitting: Regularly inspect and adjust harnesses, especially with bulky fall clothing. Ill-fitting equipment can lead to dangerous situations.


  3. Ensure Secure Footing: Always check surfaces like ladders, scaffolding, and platforms for stability, especially after rain or frost.


  4. Monitor Weather: Don’t take risks in high winds or wet conditions. Postpone tasks when the weather creates unsafe environments.


  5. Ongoing Training: Regular training is key. At Holmes Safety Training, we offer comprehensive fall safety courses to help keep your team prepared.
