The Work at Height Regulations 2005 (as amended)A brief guide

In 2005/06 falls from height accounted for 46 fatal accidents at work and around 3350 major injuries. They remain the single biggest cause of workplace deaths and one of the main causes of major injury. This document is written for employers, the self-employed and anyone who works at height. It tells you what you need to do to comply with the Work at Height Regulations 2005, as amended by the Work at Height (Amendment) Regulations 2007. The Regulations apply to all work at height where there is a risk of a fall liable to cause personal injury. Using this information 1 This document summarises what you need to do to comply with the Work at Height Regulations 2005. Some industry/trade associations may have produced more detailed guidance about working at height. You can also find more information on the HSE website. 2 It has been written so that in most cases it can be used without access to the Regulations. However, it may be useful to have the Regulations to hand if you require more information. Why are these rules important? 3 These Regulations have been made to prevent the deaths and injuries caused each year by falls at work. 4 They replace all the earlier regulations about working at height. The Work at Height Regulations 2005 consolidate previous legislation on working at height and implement European Council Directive 2001/45/EC concerning minimum safety and health requirements for the use of equipment for work at height (the Temporary Work at Height Directive). What is ‘work at height’? Regulation 2 5 A place is ‘at height’ if (unless these Regulations are followed) a person could be injured falling from it, even if it is at or below ground level. 6 ‘Work’ includes moving around at a place of work (except by a staircase in a permanent workplace) but not travel to or from a place of work. For instance, a sales assistant on a stepladder would be working at height, but we would not be inclined to apply the Regulations to a mounted police officer on patrol. Hea
