Preventing Falls from Height

Preventing falls from height in the work place can be greatly helped by planning and using the right equipment.

The HSE reported on a recent case where a worker was seriously injured after falling through an open unguarded stairwell. The HSE stated that had suitable equipment been provided, the accident would not have occurred. Surestairs have a range of equipment which can provide safe access when working at height and guard open edges and stairwells. Surestairs temporary staircases are easy to install and only weigh 24 kg which means they can be installed safely and quickly by just a single operative. Surestairs edge protectors provide a simple system to protect and guard open stairwells and edges on site and can also incorporate toe boards for further enhanced safety on site. The stairwell scaffolds also provides a safe means of working within a stairwell and are available in a range of heights.
