Working at Heights Safety Awareness Course

• Learning Outcomes

Falls from height remain one of the most common causes of serious injuries and fatalities across US workplaces, which is why this Working at Height / Fall Protection Safety Awareness Course focuses on building real, usable knowledge rather than theory alone. The course is designed to help workers and supervisors understand how fall hazards arise, how to evaluate risks on site, and how to apply the correct control measures before work begins. Learners are guided through the safe use of common access and work-at-height equipment used across US job sites, including ladders, podium steps, scaffolding systems, mobile access platforms, and MEWPs. The training also covers the correct selection, fitting, and adjustment of fall protection equipment, such as safety harnesses and lanyards, along with practical guidance on tool control, material handling at height, and maintaining safe working areas below. Emergency preparedness is also addressed, including the risks associated with suspension trauma and the importance of having suitable rescue and response arrangements in place. This course is suitable for workers in construction, manufacturing, warehousing, facilities management, utilities, and general maintenance roles, as well as supervisors responsible for site safety. By breaking down OSHA-aligned fall protection principles into clear, easy-to-understand steps, the training helps participants approach work at height with greater confidence, awareness, and responsibility, supporting safer work practices across US workplaces.
