Work At Height

Heights are, in a legal sense, considered to be any surface from which a fall might result in injury.

In order to complete our work to the highest possible standard, it is necessary to assess and eliminate risk of fall from height and perform a risk assessment.

In order to follow the  'Work at Height' legislation, TC Cleaning Services personnel must demonstrate a comprehensive understanding of:

• The requirements of existing legislation, and the implications of new regulations

• Safe working procedures for, and the criteria for selection of, all access equipment

• Required risk assessment approaches and planning for working at height

• Limitations of ladders and steps

• Training requirements and levels of competency of personnel using access equipment

• Duties placed upon designers and planners to ensure safe working at height

Health & Safety Risk Assessments when necessary are carried out to determine the likely hood of potential risk to your property and the public and preventative measures taken.

A Method Statement would detail the work procedures and determine the most effective way to carry out the job in line with the findings of the risk assessment.
