HSE Launches Work at Height Regulations – A Brief Guide

The Health and Safety Executive (HSE) has launched a brief guide to the Work at Height Regulations. The guide outlines what people must do to comply with the Regulations, which came into effect on April 6. Dr Elizabeth Gibby, Director of HSE’s Injuries Reduction Programme, said: “This guidance is aimed principally at small businesses and those not familiar with the Work at Height Regulations. It gives an excellent short introduction to the new Regulations and how to work at height safely.” The Work at Height Regulations 2005 – A Brief Guide is available on the HSE website at: www.hse.gov.uk/pubns/indg401.pdf
