Course Overview

Falls remain the leading cause of fatality on construction sites. This programme is taught largely off the ground: learners fit and inspect their own harnesses, connect to real anchors and carry out a suspended-casualty rescue before they pass.

What You Will Be Able to Do

  • Apply the work-at-height hierarchy before selecting equipment
  • Inspect, fit and adjust a full body harness correctly
  • Calculate fall clearance and understand the swing fall hazard
  • Select suitable anchor points and connecting devices
  • Recognise suspension trauma and carry out a prompt rescue
